“As he rose up into the air, where he seemingly hung suspended for a split second of time, Ronaldo reached an impressive height of 2.56m (8 foot 4 inches) when his head connected to the ball,” Juventus said on their website.

“He jumped 71cms off the ground to nod in his 11th headed goal since joining Juventus.”

Ronaldo, who earlier in the season was off-form amid injury concerns, said, “I’m really happy with the result… It was a really good goal also because it was the one that won the three points.”

In fact, fans noted that Ronaldo previously headed goals by jumping 2.93 metres against Manchester United in 2013 and 2.61 metres against Wales in 2016.

Juventus are behind Antonio Conte’s Inter Milan only on goal difference in the Italian football competition. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star has scored 10 goals in 14 league games this season.

Djokovic, meanwhile, is gearing up for the Australian Open from January 20.
