A thoroughly entertaining match at the Allianz Stadium ends with Juventus 3-1 winners thanks to Ramsey and Ronaldo, who both found the net in the last 10 minutes.
Despite being down to 10 men for the entirety of the second half, Sassuolo made themselves quite a nuisance, equalising just eight minutes after Danilo’s special strike opened the scoring.
The counter-attack was always a threat, with Oddei and Boga giving Szczesny work to do late in the match – but Pirlo’s side’s quality and numerical superiority shone through in the end.
The Bianconeri really could have scored more than thrice, but some fantastic goalkeeping from Consigli kept the score down; which the performance deserved. The win puts Juventus into fourth, while Sassuolo stay in seventh.
Juventus have a Coppa Italia match against Genoa in midweek before they travel to face Inter next Sunday. Sassuolo’s cup match is on Thursday against SPAL, before they host Parma on Sunday.
