Ronaldo recovers from red card misery to help Juve win 2-0

September 25, 2018 00:00:00


MILAN, Sept 24 (AP): Cristiano Ronaldo shrugged off the disappointment of his midweek sending off to score a late goal as Juventus preserved its perfect Serie A start on Sunday.

Ronaldo pounced nine minutes from time to set Juventus on its way to a 2-0 win at newly promoted Frosinone, which has still to score a goal this season.

It was Ronaldo's third goal in two Italian league games after the Portugal star took a while to get off the mark for his new club following his move from Real Madrid.

Ronaldo had been sent off in Juventus' 2-0 win at Valencia in the Champions League on Wednesday after appearing to pull at an opponent's hair.

"No one expected anything different from Cristiano, he will score so many goals and he is the least of our problems," Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini said.
