In the 50th minute, Ronaldo found the equalizer with a clinical finish from close range. The Portuguese forward then gave Juventus the lead just six minutes later with a powerful header. With Sassuolo reeling, Ronaldo completed his hat-trick in the 67th minute. He picked up a loose ball on the edge of the box and unleashed an unstoppable drive that flew into the bottom corner. Ronaldo’s hat-trick was a masterclass in finishing and took his tally for the season to 20 goals. It was also his first hat-trick for Juventus since joining the club in 2018. The victory was vital for Juventus in their pursuit of the Serie A title. After a disappointing start to the season, the Bianconeri have now won three consecutive league games. Sassuolo, meanwhile, were left to rue their missed opportunities. They created several chances throughout the match but failed to take advantage of them. The match was played behind closed doors due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. However, the absence of fans did not diminish the intensity and drama of the encounter. Ronaldo’s performance was a timely reminder of his enduring quality and why he remains one of the greatest players in the world. His hat-trick propelled Juventus back into title contention and underlined his importance to the team.
