Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo nodded in a late equaliser to rescue a point for Juventus in a hard-fought 2-2 derby draw at Torino on Saturday, while AC Milan's Serie A title challenge faltered with a 1-1 draw with 10-man Sampdoria.

Ronaldo struck in the 79th minute but couldn't stop Juve dropping further points in their bid for a 10th consecutive league title. Andrea Pirlo's side slip to fourth, nine points behind leaders Inter Milan, who travel to Bologna later on Saturday, and four points back from second-placed Milan.
