Juventus vs Inter: 5 Talking points as Juve beat Inter on penalties

#2 - Cristiano Ronaldo comes to Juve's rescue once again

Ronaldo scored again as Juve prevailed 4-3 on penalties

In a relatively dull affair where Juve largely lacked inspiration upfront, Cristiano Ronaldo stepped up once again in a crucial moment and delivered when it mattered.

The Portuguese superstar lasted 90 minutes and put up yet another lively performance as, despite their lackluster showing, they kept knocking on Inter's door in the second half courtesy of their talisman.

Inter managed to keep him quiet in the first half but the 33-year-old came to life in the final quarter of the game as he leveled the game for the Old Lady.

Juve were awarded a free-kick on the edge of the penalty area and there only one person who stood behind the ball.

Although the ball took a wicked deflection before it reached the back of the net, Ronaldo struck the ball with venom and deservedly claimed the goal as Juve eventually went on to win the game on penalties.
