Cristiano Ronaldo scored two penalties against FiorentinaCristiano Ronaldo converted two penalties in a 3-0 win over Fiorentina to match a Juventus goalscoring record and bring up the latest milestone of his illustrious career. Ronaldo struck from the spot in each half (40, 80) to stretch his scoring streak to nine successive Serie A games, equalling a club record held by former striker David Trezeguet. Fiorentina held their own for much of the game but Ronaldo's cool head, plus a stoppage-time third from defender Matthijs de Ligt (90+1), ensured Juve Maurizio Sarri's leaders bounced back from last week's 2-1 defeat by Napoli. Instead, Juve were awarded the penalty after Miralem Pjanic's shot hit German Pezzella's raised hand and, after waiting for the referee to confirm his decision with the pitchside monitor, Ronaldo scored with a low shot to his left. Ceccherini was booked for dissent and Ronaldo - who took his season tally to 19 - scored again with a shot to his left as Dragowski went the other way.
