ROME. – Cristiano Ronaldo erased the frustration of his Champions League soccer red card by scoring the opener and setting up Federico Bernardeschi for a second as Juventus maintained their perfect record in the Italian Serie A after five games with a 2-0 win at promoted Frosinone on Sunday.
The Portuguese star had threatened several times at the Stadio Benito Stirpe but finally found a way through nine minutes from time, and then helped substitute Bernardeschi to score Juve’s second four minutes into injury time.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner had scored his first goals last week with a double in a 2-1 win over Sassuolo, before the 33-year-old was sent off in tears on Wednesday in a 2-0 Champions League win over Valencia.
Juventus – the only unbeaten team in Serie A – have 15 points from five games, three points ahead of Napoli who beat Torino 3-1 earlier on Sunday. – AFP.
