CRISTIANO RONALDO SCORES STUNNER AS JUVENTUS CONTINUE SERIE A TITLE MARCH

By -


Cristiano Ronaldo netted a stunner in Juventus 3-1 win over Genoa as the old ladies take a step closer to a record nine consecutive Scudetto.

The 35 year old's strike was the second of a set of three beautiful goals scored by the defending champions on Tuesday night.

COURTOIS HAS KEPT THE MOST CLEAN SHEET IN LA LIGA SO FAR

Dybala put his side in the lead in the 50th minute with a beautiful finish following a snaking dribble, a strike that set the tone for the rest of the match.

Ronaldo, who had looked off the pace following the league's restart from the coronavirus shutdown, showed that he was back to his best seven minutes later when he charged towards goal before letting off a rocket of a shot that Perin could only grasp at as it fired into the net.

ASPAS LATE GOAL HOLDS BARCELONA

That settled the result, but substitute Costa then made his own case for goal of the match when he collected the ball towards the right side of the area and unleashed a curling, dipping shot that again left Perin bewildered.

Speaking after the match, Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri said: 

"It was a good team effort and we scored three brilliant goals. The team have recovered well after the disappointment of losing the Italian Cup final, it was only a matter of time."

The former Napoli boss then talked about the new found relationship between Dybala and Ronaldo.



"They [Dybala and Ronaldo] have learned to look for each other more often," Sarri said of a blossoming partnership.

"They have realised that by benefitting from each other, both reap the rewards. It's something I have noticed in training too."

The win ensured Juventus kept their four-point lead over second-placed Lazio, who had earlier produced a come-from-behind win at Torino to apply the pressure on Juve, who are chasing a ninth successive Serie A title.

Manchester City's forward Raheem Sterling insists black managers should be given a chance to manage top clubs too like their white counterparts. The England star made the statement while appearing as a guest on the BBC’s flagship political programme, Newsnight, in the wake of anti-racism protests that have taken hold across the world. “This is a time to speak on these subjects, speak on injustice, especially in my field,” said Sterling. “There’s something like 500 players in the Premier League and a third of them are black and we have no representation of us in the hierarchy, no representation of us in the coaching staffs. There’s not a lot of faces that we can relate to and have conversations with. “With these protests that are going on it’s all well and good just talking, but it’s time that we need to have conversations, to be able to spark debates. But at same time, it’s coming together and finding a solution to be able to spark change because we can talk as much as we want abou...

The Polish international headed home his team's last goal in a 4-2 victory over Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday to take his tally for the season to 30. Both sides served up a breathless opening with chances at either end, and the hosts opened the scoring when Julian Baumgartlinger set up Lucas Alario, who slot past Neuer. A Goretzka header warmed the gloves of keeper Lukas Hradecky, Kimmich seeing an effort blocked before Coman was ruled offside. Bayern were increasingly dominant and levelled the scores when Goretzka's pinpoint pass found the charging Coman, who curled past Hradecky. Kimmich saw a free-kick saved and Lewandowski fired wide, but Bayern went ahead when Goretzka crashed home from 20 yards. Gnabry soon had only Hradecky to beat and saw his effort denied, but he atoned for it when he latched onto a fine Kimmich pass and found the net this time. Proceedings were similar after the restart. Müller fired wide before Davies found Coman in the box, but the Frenchman's fi...
