Cristiano Ronaldo opened his Juventus account, scoring two goals in Juve’s 2-1 victory over Sassuolo, but admits his eyes are on the Champions League.

The Portuguese forward has had a strong start to his career in Turin but lacked goals in his opening three games. Thankfully, the floodgates opened against Sassuolo and Ronaldo was happy to get on the scoresheet.

“I’m very happy, we started well. Sassuolo defend well, but we put in an intense performance and deserved to win,” Ronaldo told Sky Sport Italia.

“I really wanted to score these first goals and I’m happy to have found the net.

“This is football. The important thing is that the team wins. Obviously, I was a little tense with all the talk after my move from Real Madrid and not scoring, so there were a lot of expectations, but I thank my teammates for supporting me throughout.

“I knew that I was working well and it was only a matter of time. I am adapting well to Italian football.

“The Champions League is my favourite tournament. It’s a very difficult group, we know that we can do well and Juve must focus on being the best.”
