Football: Belated birthday present for Ronaldo as Juventus beat Roma 2-0

Champions Juventus leapfrogged Roma into third place in Serie A with a comfortable 2-0 win at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday. Naturally, Cristiano Ronaldo was on the scoresheet - with his side's first goal a day after his 36th birthday, his 17th of the season. Ronaldo almost made it 2-0 a few minutes later when his shot took a deflection and cannoned off the underside of the crossbar. An own goal from Roger Ibanez gave Andrea Pirlo's side their second goal as he inadvertently turned in a cross from Dejan Kulusevski. Roma enjoyed plenty of possession but did precious little with it - the closest they came was through a first-half volley which flew just wide from Bryan Crisante.
