Since the beginning of this season in serie A, juventus performance has always been outstanding until yesterdays defeat to Genoa.

Juventus fell to their first Serie A defeat of the season as they were beaten 2-0 by Genoa at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris with onloan Stefano Sturaro scoring the only goal against his parent club before Goran Pandev sealed the victory late on.

I think yesterdays defeat came as a shock because with Juventus recent 3-0 victory against athletico Madrid I think no one was expecting Juventus unbeaten record this season to come to an end.

But the question that desperately needs to be answered is does Ronaldo absence has anything to do Juventus defeat or it was just Massimiliano Allegri's strategy that didn't work out.

Because even when football stars like Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala started up front in place of the Portuguese star player, I think they didn't make much of an impact in the game yesterday, if ask me I'll tell you they simply flopped.

Even though we heard from the mouth of Massimiliano Allegri that he deliberately left Ronaldo out of the squad again Genoa to rest because of fatigue after the tough match against athletico Madrid in the champions league last week.

You seen it all people is Ronaldo truely Juventus lucky charm. I look forward to seeing your comments and upvotes.
