Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus Lose 2-0 to AS Roma in Serie A

Cristiano Ronaldo's Juventus couldn't get past AS Roma during Sunday's Serie A action, losing 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico. Alessandro Florenzi and Edin Dzeko got the goals.

The two teams were evenly matched throughout the contest, and both had their chances in the first half. Antonio Mirante produced excellent saves to deny Paulo Dybala and Juan Cuadrado, while Lorenzo Pellegrini hit the post.

Things slowed down in the second half, although Ronaldo had a goal ruled out for offside.

It was Florenzi who found the breakthrough after 79 minutes, however, setting up a clever passing move with Dzeko before lifting the ball past Wojciech Szczesny.
