Genoa looked set to earn a hard-fought point in Thiago Motta's second game in charge after Christian Kouame's freak goal had cancelled out Leonardo Bonucci's 36th-minute header.
Both sides had a men sent off in the second half, Genoa's Francesco Cassata and Juve's Adrien Rabiot given their marching orders, before바카라 웹사이트Ronaldo took centre stage.
The Portuguese first had a 92nd-minute tap in ruled out by VAR for offside. But that was far from the end of the drama, and there was still time for Ronaldo바카라 웹사이트to fire a sluggish Juve to victory, as the striker himself won바카라 웹사이트the decisive penalty following바카라 웹사이트a coming-together with substitute Antonio Sanabria -바카라 웹사이트VAR this time going in his favour after the spot-kick was checked by the officials.
Juve coach Maurizio Sarri had said in the build-up that his side were suffering바카라 웹사이트a "mental issue" in front of goal and they barely threatened in a tame first 30 minutes against a team with the worst defensive record in the league.
A stunning save from Ionut Radu eventually denied Paulo Dybala the opener and바카라 웹사이트that chance finally바카라 웹사이트woke Juventus up from their slumber, as Bonucci soon broke the deadlock.
The defender was aided by Radu's decision to come off his line in an attempt to collect Rodrigo Bentancur's corner, the goalkeeper beaten to the ball by Bonucci, who simply nodded into an empty net.
Parity was restored within five minutes, though, thanks to Kouame's slice of accidental glory.
Aiming at goal with his right foot, the Ivorian managed to kick the ball into his trailing leg, the deflection subsequently wrong-footing Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon in his 513rd league appearance for the Italian giants, which saw him equal Alessandro del Piero's club record.
Juve ramped up the pressure after Cassata's 52nd-minute dismissal - for a second yellow card - and Federico Bernardeschi then forced an excellent save from Radu with an effort from distance, before Ronaldo tested the shot-stopper from a corner.
Home substitute Douglas Costa fizzed a long-range effort agonisingly wide before Rabiot was given his marching orders - a foul on바카라 웹사이트Sinan Gumus earning him a second yellow -바카라 웹사이트but the hosts still found a way in the dying stages to claim the points, thanks to a spell of VAR-heavy drama.
Initially, Ronaldo scored and celebrated before his goal was disallowed for offside, but then바카라 웹사이트a debatable penalty followed and the Portuguese star stepped up to thump it home바카라 웹사이트and send Juventus back to the top of the Serie A table.
