On November 11, 2019, Juventus secured a crucial 1-0 win over AC Milan in a Serie A match, with Cristiano Ronaldo being substituted just nine minutes into the second half.
According to reports, Ronaldo shook hands with his teammate Paulo Dybala before heading straight into the dressing room for an early shower.
Despite the early substitution, Juventus managed to secure the win with Dybala scoring a brilliant individual goal with 13 minutes left to play.
The Bianconeri were not at their best, with the Rossoneri forcing several saves from goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
This was the second time Ronaldo was substituted, having been taken off in Juventus' midweek Champions League win over Lomotiv Moscow for Dybala.
Coach Maurizio Sarri had explained the midweek substitution, citing concerns about Ronaldo's knee problem to make him available for the epic clash with Milan.
