Cristiano Ronaldo maintains his record of over a goal per game in Serie A this season for Juventus after his late equaliser saved the Bianconeri from defeat to local rivals Torino. Ronaldo’s goal was his 24th from just 23 appearances in the Italian league, but more dropped points further dented Juve’s title aspirations.
Elsewhere, there was a memorable goal for former Sporting midfielder Ruben Ribeiro, who produced a superb strike as Hatayspor beat powerhouses Galatasaray 3-0 in Turkey. In Greece Xande Silva continued his good form with a goal and an assist, while Bebé snatched a late winner for Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish second tier.
