Result: Juventus 3-0 Dynamo Kyiv
Date: 02 December 2020
Venue: Allianz Stadium
Cristiano Ronaldo was back among the goals as Juventus thumped Dynamo Kyiv 3-0 in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday evening.
Ronaldo headlined the Italian champions' six changes from the draw at Benevento, as Alex Sandro, Merih Demiral, Leonardo Bonucci Weston McKennie and Rodrigo Bentancur entered.
Juventus were off to a positive start when a good chance on eight minutes found Federico Chiesa, who after running towards the area, drilled wide of the mark.
The Italians didn't wait long to go ahead as Chiesa pulled away from a challenge in the centre of the area after 21 minutes to head a cross from Sandro on the ground and into the back of the net.
Sandro led Juve on the charge again ten minutes later after a teasing ball through a cluster of defenders met Ronaldo who crashed the woodwork following a first-time strike.
Kyiv were given a sniff at goal in the last four minutes of the half with Viktor Tsygankov latching onto a chest down to charge forth but Wojciech Szczesny read the danger and spurned.
Ronaldo went close to grabbing Juve's second goal ten minutes in the second half from a shot outside the area, but curled narrowly over the crossbar after carving a yard of space.
The latter made amends two minutes later after arriving at the far post to tap-in a cutback from Alvaro Morata, with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) ruling out foul play.
Aaron Ramsey made way for Federico Bernardeschi on 62 minutes while Danilo came on for Bonucci, as Juve made a double substitution.
Juve found a third four minutes later when Morata spotted space in the middle to drill a low shot past Heorhiy Bushchan after swivelling away from a few challengers.
The visitors attempted a late consolation as fulltime loomed, but Juventus bagged all the points and clean sheet in the end.
