19 January 2020 Juve enforces the law of the Stadium by beating a tough Parma (2-1) with a brace by Cristiano Ronaldo and thus goes to +4 on Inter and +5 on Lazio (who must, however, recover the game with Hellas Verona).

In Juve, back from the success in the league on Roma and in the Italian Cup with Udinese, Ramsey is in support of Dybala-Ronaldo, while Higuain is on the bench. Sarri ranks his with 4-3-1-2: Sczesny; Cuadrado, De Ligt, Bonucci, Alex Sandro; Rabiot, Pjanic, Matuidi; Ramsey; Dybala, Ronaldo.

start on non-transcendental rhythms, Juve tries to make the game, but without shining. The first news note arrives at 21 'for the substitution in the Juventus of Alex Sandro, injured, with Danilo. The black and white call on 24 'with Cristiano Ronaldo who first frees himself from Gagliolo and then tries to hit the right, rejects Sepe. Sarri's team struggles to increase the pace and find the way to the net. At 43 'CR7 thinks about unlocking it: he receives the ball on the left corner of the area, the right re-enters and explodes, the deflection of Darmian deceives Sepe for the 1-0 of Juve. For the Portuguese champion it is the number 15 goal in this Serie A. In the first half final there is also the first change in Parma (English forced to leave for Cornelius in the 44th minute) and the chance for Ramsey who, from a good position, chips the post to the left of Sepe (48 ').

In the second half Danilo's right-footed shot from outside the box, which Sepe managed to touch and deflect on the post (51 '). At 55 ', surprisingly, the draw of Parma arrives: corner of Scozzarella, a large framed Cornelius who crosses below seven, where Sczesny cannot reach. But the peer does not last long. Juve in 58 'in fact back in the lead. Descent on the right of Dybala who puts an inviting ball for Ronaldo who arrives in tow and on the right still surpasses Sepe: 2-1. CR7 thus goes to seven lengths from the leader of the scorers classification, the impregnable Property which is at 23 goals. Another Juve change with Higuain on the pitch (together with Dybala and Ronaldo), outside Ramsey (59 '), replacement n.2 also among the Emilians with Sprocati instead of Scozzarella (66'). Juve in control in the final, tries to close Parma forward. For the ducals he tries from long distance Kurtic, but Sczesny is careful and rejects diving (80 '). Last change Juve with Douglas Costa who takes over from Dybala (81 '). Great chance for Parma in the final but Sprocati gets himself rejected by de Ligt a penalty on the move (84 '). Among the crusaders inside also Siligardi for Kulusevski (88 '), but the energies are now in the limelight and the game ends like this, with the bianconeri stretching on Inter.
