Cristiano Ronaldo scores twice as Juventus close on AC Milan

Sunday, 20 December 2020 12:53

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a double as Juventus secured a comfortable victory over Parma to move within a point of Serie A leaders AC Milan.

Alvaro Morata netted a goal after after Dejan Kulusevski scored against the club, taking the final score to 4-0.

After a midweek draw at home with Atalanta, in which Ronaldo missed a penalty, he made amends by scoring twice to take his tally to a league-high 12 from nine Serie A appearances.

"Ronaldo was quite rightly angry with himself after missing a penalty," Juve coach Andrea Pirlo told DAZN. "But fortunately he didn't have much time to stew over it and immediately got the chance to show just how much he loves to score goals."

Inter Milan will welcome Spezia to the San Siro on Sunday, when AC Milan also visit Sassuolo.
