Juventus forward Cristiano once again scored another wonder goal on Wednesday evening as the Old Lady overcame Sampdoria 2-1 in a Serie A match.
Paulo Dybala had given Juve the lead in the 19th minute before Gianluca Caprari drew the hosts’ level in the 35th minute. The Portugal international then stole the show just before the break with what proved to be the winning goal for Mauricio Sarri’s men.

Brazilian defender Alex Sandro delivered a cross from the left-wing and the former Real Madrid out-jumped him marker by several meters before powering home a header for his third goal in two games for the Old Lady.
Having been written off after failing to find the back of the net for several games, the forward once again send a strong message to his detractors. At 34 many expect his fortunes o be dwindling but it appears the five-time Ballon d’Or is not about to exit the scene anytime soon.
Football fans across the world took to social media to once again praise the attacker and reignited the debate on who between him and his argentine nemesis Lionel Messi is currently the best in the world and who been them should be regarded as best ever.

Ronaldo has just scored a far post header where his feet were higher than the crossbar….it’s only a slight exaggeration. Ridiculous leap.
