Cristiano Ronaldo is training hard to be ready when Juventus play Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League 2020-21 Group G match on Tuesday. Ronaldo was absent when Juventus lost a 0-2 to Barcelona at home in the reverse group fixture in October. But the 35-year-old will be eager to lead his side to a win when they meet again in their final group match. Ronaldo has been in fine form since returning to the Juventus squad after recovering from COVID-19 and has already scored five goals in seven matches across all competitions.
