Cristiano Ronaldo Scores as Juventus Defeat Sassuolo 3-0 in Serie a

Cristiano Ronaldo was on hand to head Juventus to victory as they beat Sassuolo 3-0 on Sunday and restored an 11-point cushion at the summit of Serie A.

Sami Khedira scored his first goal since the opening game of the season, but Ronaldo's second-half header secured the three points to keep the Turin giants looking comfortable at the top. Emre Can came off the bench and joined German compatriot Khedira on the score sheet with his first touch.

Ronaldo started for the Bianconeri while Paulo Dybala was benched for the second game in succession by manager Massimiliano Allegri and only came on in the 83rd minute.
