Title more important than record: Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo scaled
Cristiano Ronaldo broke yet another record in Juventus’s 2-1 victory against Lazio. Ronaldo became the first ever player to reach 50 goals in Serie A in 61 matches. But the Portuguese star is motivated towards winning the Scudetto for Juventus.
Juventus are on the brink of wining their 9th consecutive title with an 8 point lead over second placed Inter Milan. Ronaldo became the first player to score 50 goals in English premier league, La- Liga and Serie –A.
In a post-match Ronaldo said “Records are always important, but the important thing is that the team wins,” Ronaldo told Sky Sport Italia post-game. We are a phenomenal team and we showed that again today. Although we always want to improve and raise the bar. These things are nice, but the Capocannoniere title is a natural process that comes as a consequence of scoring to win games for the team.”
Ronaldo opened the scoring in 51st from a well-placed penalty and scored again 3 minutes later from a Dybala assist. The Portuguese has scored 30 goals this season. Although Ronaldo is aiming to become Serie – A’s leading scorer for the 2019-2020 campaign.
Roanldo later added “We knew it was a very difficult game against a team having a great season. But we knew this was a big opportunity to win, we were at home. We’re very happy. There are four games to go, we cannot get this wrong and know Serie A is tough. The team is doing well, though.”.
