Cristiano Ronaldo had a penalty saved as Juventus were held to yet another Serie A draw with Atalanta which finished 1-1 in Turin on Wednesday.
A stunning strike from Federico Chiesa put the Italian champions in front in the first half, but Remo Freuler’s powerful effort crashed off the bar and in to earn the visitors a deserved point after the break.
Ronaldo spurned a golden chance to put the hosts back in front minutes later, but his tame spot kick was comfortably held by Pierluigi Gollini.
Still unbeaten this season, Andrea Pirlo’s side are third with 24 points, six ahead of Atalanta in eighth.
