The 34-year-old had only managed one goal in six Champions League appearances this season, but stepped up when it mattered to deliver one of his finest European performances.
Ronaldo gave Juventus hope in the first-half when he powerfully headed home just before the half-hour mark. And he then levelled the tie when he scored just after half-time, with his header shown to have beaten Jan Oblak thanks to goal line technology.
He then sealed a famous victory after the impressive Federico Bernardeschi was nudged over in the box by Angel Correa. Ronaldo stepped up and confidently converted the penalty, to seal a 3-0 victory on the night which sends Juventus through to the last eight.
