Three minutes, that’s how long it took for Cristiano Ronaldo to score after coming back from contracting coronavirus.
The Juventus star had missed the previous four matches after suffering from Covid-19, including the midweek clash against Lionel Messi’s Barcelona.
The Portuguese superstar couldn’t hide his frustrations and took to social media to express his displeasure after testing positive for a third time on Tuesday evening.

However, after a long two weeks of being a ‘caged animal’ Ronaldo’s ready to return to action as Juventus travelled to Spezia.
In a statement earlier this week, the Italian club confirmed the good news.
The statement from Juventus read:
“Cristiano Ronaldo carried out a check with a diagnostic test (swab) for Covid 19.
“The exam provided a negative result. The player has, therefore, recovered after 19 days and is no longer subjected to home isolation.”
Ronaldo was named on the substitutes bench and had to wait until the 56th-minute to be introduced.
Within three minutes, Ronaldo latched onto Alvaro Morata’s pass and put Juventus 2-1 ahead.
After Adrian Rabiot had put Juve 3-1 ahead, Ronaldo then added his second of the game with a very cheeky penalty.
