Juventus' marquee player Cristiano Ronaldo had a relatively quiet first half, and was on the periphery of the match, but had his moment in the 62nd minute.

On matchday one, the Portuguese international thought he had opened his account in the game against Parma, but saw his effort ruled out for a marginal offside after consultation with VAR.

He was however not to be denied against Napoli, as he placed a Douglas Costa square ball with a left footed finish to send Juventus into a comfortable 3-0 lead.

There was no traditional celebration, however, with Ronaldo rather making a screen gesture with his hand in mock reference to his VAR canceled goal last week.

Ronaldo finished third in the scorers' charts in the Serie A Golden Boot race last season and would be eager to go one better, and having gotten off the mark against Napoli, the 34-year-old would seek to build more momentum.
