Ramsey, Ronaldo put Juventus top in Serie A

Aaron Ramsey's first Juventus goal on his maiden start and Cristiano Ronaldo's spot-kick winner saw the Italian champions seal a comeback 2-1 win over Verona on Saturday that put them top of Serie A ahead of the Milan derby.
 Welsh international Ramsey pulled Juventus level in the 31st minute in Turin in reply to Miguel Veloso's early Verona goal, with a well-taken Ronaldo penalty ensuring all three points for the hosts just after the break.


It got Maurizio Sarri's side back winning after last weekend's Serie A stalemate at Fiorentina and a 2-2 Champions League draw at Atletico Madrid midweek.

Italian goalkeeping legend Gianluigi Buffon returned to the Juventus goal after spending a season in Paris Saint-Germain to match Paolo Maldini's Italian record of 902 club matches.
Buffon's appearances have been spread across three clubs -- Parma, Juventus and PSG -- with Maldini having spent his entire career with Serie A rivals Milan.
