Cristiano Ronaldo FINALLY scores first Juventus goal

After 320 minutes and 27 shots, Cristiano Ronaldo finally opened his goal scoring account for Juventus in a 2-1 victory against Sassuolo on Sunday.

Okay, so it was a tap-in from about a yard out, but still, his goal in the Serie A clash against Sassuolo was treated as being hugely significant. 

Ronaldo broke his Juventus duck in his fourth game when he scored a brace on Sunday to give them a 2-1 win over Sassuolo in Serie A, although the Turin side's day was marred by a red card for Douglas Costa for spitting at an opponent.

The five-times world player of the year opened his account in the easiest possible fashion by tapping into an empty net from less than two metres in the 50th minute. 
The Portuguese added another in the 65th minute when he finished off a counter-attack by drilling a low-angled shot beyond Andrea Consigli and into the far corner with his left foot.

After Ronaldo missed two good chances for a hat-trick, Khouma Babacar headed one back in the 90th minute but could not prevent Sassuolo from falling to their first defeat of the season.
