Cristiano Ronaldo lowered the Swedish team

Swedish Dejan Kulusevski signed a few weeks ago for Juventus, and will play for the Turin major club from next season.

Tonight he was set against his upcoming team. But he couldn't look forward to any goal, or any points for his Parma.

Series leader Juventus won by 2-1, but it wasn't as simple as some might have thought it would be.

Big match winner was, like so many other times, Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese stood for both goals, thus becoming the first Serie A player in the 2000s to score two goals in three straight matches.

- The most important thing tonight was to win. Lazio won this round, but Inter lost points so we couldn't afford not to take advantage of the important advantage. It was a tough match because Parma is a great team and made it difficult for us, Ronaldo told Sky Sports, and continued:

- I'm glad I helped the team with two goals, but the most important thing is always the three points.

The first goal came just before halftime, when he fired a shot that went via Parma defender Matteo Darmian and into the goal.

However, Parma was able to acknowledge ten minutes into the second half, when the Danish substitute Andreas Cornelius nodded a corner.

But Parma's joy was short-lived. Only three minutes later, he came out striking a few yards in front of goal and bounced Paulo Dybala's pass into goal.

Parma had some pressure on Juventus at the end, and Kulusevski played just before he was substituted for Mattias Sprocati in the 88th minute, but his finish - just like the other Parma attempts - was futile.

- They created several chances in the second half. We were nervous in the end because they were pushing with good players, but in the end we got a good result, says Ronaldo.

Parma's second Swedish player, Riccardo Gagliolo, played the entire match for Juventus and on a couple of occasions was properly spun by Ronaldo.
