Jeremie Boga's painful memories of facing Cristiano Ronaldo

Sassuolo's Jeremie Boga has described facing Cristiano Ronaldo as an inevitable "painful memory."

The Ivorian forward faced the former Real Madrid superstar at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday with the game ending 2-2.

Boga equalised for the Neroverdi after Leonardo Bonucci opened proceedings. It looked like Sassuolo would cause an upset when Francesco Caputo gave them a 2-1 lead, only for Ronaldo to equalise from the penalty spot.
