Cristiano Ronaldo Doesn't Always Have to Score for Juventus: Andrea Pirlo

News 18  

Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo said his side can cope when Cristiano Ronaldo does not score after the Portuguese failed to net in their win at Sampdoria on Saturday to go three league games without a goal for the first time since August, 2019. Three matches without a goal is hardly a scoring drought, but by Ronaldo’s standards it represents a dry spell of sorts and he has registered only once in his last five Serie A starts. We do not rely on him.” Goals from Federico Chiesa and a late strike from substitute Aaron Ramsey earned champions Juve the win that moved them within seven points of leaders AC Milan and above AS Roma into third place in the standings. It wasn’t easy without much preparation, as I had to see what so many players were like in matches, rather than on training pitch.” Read all the Latest News, Breaking News and Coronavirus News here
