Ronaldo heads Bianconeri to Supercoppa glory

Juventus will return to Turin with the Supercoppa Italiana in tow after Cristiano Ronaldo's header sank AC Milan.

Cristiano Ronaldo's goal proved decisive as Juventus defeated 10-man AC Milan 1-0 to win the Supercoppa Italiana in Jeddah.

The Portugal forward headed through the limp hands of Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma just after the hour, which was enough to settle a low-key affair.

Juve could have won by a more comfortable scoreline with Douglas Costa and Joao Cancelo having decent chances, while the Bianconeri twice correctly had goals ruled out for offside before Franck Kessie was deservedly sent off for Gennaro Gattuso's side.
