Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo tried to score the first goal of the match against Lecce with a bicycle kick. It was at the same place where he did it for Real Madrid, but the result on this occasion was disastrous...

Juventus and Lecce faced each other at the Juventus Stadium on Friday, in the first game of matchday 28 of the Serie A.

Maurizio Sarri's side timidly took to the field and the visitors could have gone in front in the first few minutes of the match through a Rispoli shot from the edge of the box.

But Juventus were gaining ground as the minutes went by and the attacks became a siege after Lucione was sent off in the 31st minute. He lost the ball, and being the last defender, he brought down Bentancur.

And in one of those attacks, Cristiano Ronaldo tried a bicycle kick to try and open the scoring. He managed to score a great goal like that when he was at Real Madrid, and at the same place, it didn't go well.

Again in Turin, the Portuguese did not manage to arrange his body with exactitude and the shot, soft, went well wide.
