Cristiano Ronaldo might have taken some time to settle in at his new club Juventus after ending his nine-year stay with Spanish giants Real Madrid. But it looks like the Portuguese seems to be getting better with his age, after he was back to his record-breaking exploits at the Italian club. 

The talismanic forward notched his 10th goal for Juventus in all competitions and by doing so he became the fastest ever player in the history of the club to reach the landmark in just 16 appearances.

The talismanic forward slotted the ball into the net after a delightful free-kick floated into the box by Mirajlem Pjanic at the half-hour mark in Turin. He joined Genoa's Krzysztof Piatek at the top of the Serie A goalscoring charts with nine goals to his name.

Much later in the game, Croatian striker Mario Mandzukic sealed the three points for the Serie giants on the hour mark by prodding in the ball after Douglas Costa shot rebounded off the keeper.

SPAL, fighting relegation, were no match for Allegri's reigning champions who are nine points ahead of Inter Milan and Napoli. It was a routine win for Juventus ahead of Tuesday's crucial Champions League visit of Valencia.
