He headed well wide as he took his frustration out on the post, kicking it in anger as Juventus squandered a huge chance.

Die-hard Lionel Messi fans immediately shared the clip on social media, mercilessly mocking the 36-year-old.

However, Ronaldo redeemed himself as he opened the scoring minutes later.

Federico Chiesa excellently worked an opening before sending a ball to the Portuguese who slotted home to give his side the lead.

Ronaldo's strike brought up his 25th Serie A goal of the season. He has now bagged 25+ league goals in 11 out of the last 12 campaigns.

He's enjoying another prolific term despite some fans and critics trying to write him off.
