Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo has shifted to Juventus, the forward has been blazing guns. Yesterday in the finals of SuperCoppa Italia 2018-19, CR7 scored a stunning header at the 61st minute and gave Juventus the much-required lead. The match was held at King Abdullah Sports City in Saudi Arabia. Juventus missed a few chances to score a goal, but the header by Ronaldo was just too good to be stopped by AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. With this, the scoreboard read 1-0.

The Portugal forward lofted responded to a lofted pass made by Miralem Pjanic and netted a goal. This was CR7’s 16 goal for Juventus. This victory marked Ronaldo’s first win for the new club. CR7 celebrated the win with the champion Flyod Mayweather.
