Juventus were indebted to Cristiano Ronaldo's late goal to maintain their unbeaten home record in Serie A against local rivals Torino.
Match Events
7' NO PENALTY! Ronaldo tackled down in penalty area
18' GOAL! Juventus 0-1 Torino (Lukic)
The visitors take the lead thanks to an horrendous mistake from their opponents. Pjanic lets a simple throw back to him roll across his body and Lukic is waiting to pounce behind him. The midfielder keeps his composure in front of goal by picking out the far corner with the inside of his foot.
19' CHANCE! Matuidi's shot saved
22' MISS! Ronaldo's shot wide out
54' CHANCE! Ronaldo's header over the bar
84' GOAL! Juventus 1-1 Torino (Ronaldo)
So close, yet so far for Torino! It looks as though the visitors' long wait for an away victory in this fixture will go on as Ronaldo gets between two opposition defenders and powers a trademark header past Sirigu from the edge of the six-yard box.
Match Report
Cristiano Ronaldo scored six minutes from time to salvage an undeserved 1-1 Serie A draw for Juventus in Friday's Turin derby against Torino.
Walter Mazzarri's side had been on course for a first win away to the champions since 1995 thanks to Sasa Lukic's first goal for the club in the first half.
Ronaldo – who had come close before the interval – popped up late on, though, heading in from six yards to preserve his team's unbeaten home record in the league this season.
Despite that goal, the Bianconeri's campaign is in danger of fizzling out in underwhelming fashion, with their win over Fiorentina on April 20 – a result that confirmed their eighth successive league title – their only success in the past six games across all competitions.

Ronaldo has always saved Juventus from disgrace. What are the other teammates doing ? Ronaldo is the only Juventus player to score all 5 goals in the UCL KO stage for his team. And now he has saved Juventus from losing in 2 games in a row. Juventus should stop relying on Ronaldo. Other players should also step up.

They are assisting him with another great ball ?????? The goals he scored is from a great pass, as always with him, dont forget it.
Are you dumb? Do Messi collect the ball from GK and ran all his way towards another post and score? I know Barca fans are dumb but didn't expect this dumbness.
