Juventus player ratings vs Fiorentina: Bentancur impresses again, Ronaldo streak continues

CAM: Cristiano Ronaldo 8/10

The streak continues. His 79th minute penalty made this match against Fiorentina his 11th consecutive Serie A appearance with either a goal or an assist and the goal put him back into a tie for first in the league with 10 goals. As usual, he was the most dangerous player in Juve’s attack and it doesn’t look like his streak will be ending any time soon.

CAM: Paulo Dybala 7.5/10

Back in the role he thrived in last season, Paulo Dybala looked like the Dybala fans have been expecting all year. In the match against Fiorentina he passed the ball well and put his teammates in some dangerous positions, including the perfectly weight ball he played to set up Bentancur’s goal. It was a positive sign for Dybala, who hasn’t quite been able to fit into the 4-3-3 yet this season.

CAM: Juan Cuadrado 8/10

The number of options Juve has to play on the right side of the field is just unfair. Juan Cuadrado was once again able to leave his mark in this match, putting in a solid defensive effort in his hybrid midfield/wing role and assisted Chiellini’s goal. Cuadrado is playing well enough right now to make the decision who should start on the right a difficult one for Allegri in every match. If he continues to put in these kinds of efforts then we could see a lot more of him than we expected before the year started.

ST: Mario Mandzukic 7/10

Mario Mandzukic was surprisingly quiet in Juve’s outburst against Fiorentina. It would’ve been easy to expect Mandzukic to score his 7th goal of the season in a match like this, but he surprisingly only got 39 touches and only attempted one shot. He still made 2 tackles in the match because that’s what Mario Mandzukic does. This wasn’t a particularly memorable day for Mandzukic, but there should be plenty more of those to come this season.
