Juventus coach Allegri happy with Ronaldo work this week

Juventus coach Max Allegri was happy with Cristiano Ronaldo's work this week.

Ronaldo skipped Portugal's Nations League win over Italy in order to focus on training with his new club.

“Cristiano worked well and I think tomorrow he will break his duck," said Allegri.

“I expect nothing more or less than what he did in the first three games, but I believe tomorrow he'll find the back of the net and break the ice.

“With no offence to Luka Modric, I'd give the Ballon d'Or to Ronaldo for what he did last season. I think he deserves it."
