After that, Juventus took control as Dejan Kulusevski netted the first from Alex Sandro's pass in the 23rd minute. Three minutes later, Ronaldo added the second with a brilliant header. In the second half, Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata scored the third and fourth respectively.

The top-two scorers are Felice Borel (41) and Gunnar Nordahl (36).
