Ronaldo on target again as Juventus spank Florentina

Juventus continued their unbeaten run in Serie A with a 3-0 thumping at Fiorentina on Saturday.

The win extends the Bianconeri’s start to an impressive 14 straight games without a defeat and places them 11 points clear of second-placed Napoli in the league table.

Rodrigo Bentancur opened the scoring with a well-taken goal in the 31st minute — the Uruguay international playing a slick one-two with Paulo Dybala before dragging his left-footed shot past a helpless Alban Lafont in goal.

Giorgio Chiellini added a second in the 69th minute when his sliding effort took a heavy deflection and looped in over the goal line.

Cristiano Ronaldo, then, completed the scoring from the penalty spot 10 minutes later after an Edimilson Fernandes handball in the box.

Ronaldo was on the scorer’s sheet last week against Spal.

The former Real Madrid star has scored 10 goals and recorded five assists for the Italian Giants in the Serie A.

Juventus are the only team across Europe’s top five leagues still unbeaten away from home in 2018 (W13 D3).
