Cristiano Ronaldo: what can Juventus do on the pitch without its talisman?
Cristiano Ronaldo, has been left out of Juventus’ squad to face Brescia in
Serie A (Italian League) today Sunday, February 16
Ronaldo’s penalty to snatch a 1-1 draw in the first leg of Juve’s Coppa Italia
semi-final against Milan on Thursday continued his run of scoring in every
match he has played in 2020.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s next chance to continue that run and his
record of netting in each of his previous nine Serie A games is likely to come
in next weekend’s trip to SPAL.
Ronaldo’s next appearance will be the 1,000th outing of his highly decorated
professional career.
Juve is level on points with leader Inter Milan at the summit and head coach
Maurizio Sarri is once again without injured quartet Douglas Costa, Federico
Bernardeschi, Sami Khedira, Giorgio Chiellini and Merih Demiral.
It is left to see how Juventus will go on without the talisman on the pitch.
Ronaldo’s scored in all the game he has played in 2020 so far.
Giannis Antetokounmpo
was in awe of Ronaldo’s performance recently, slightly preferring him over Lionel
Messi.
CR7 is just like an old wine, he keeps getting better.
