In a recent interview with DAZN, Cristiano Ronaldo revealed the interesting story behind his 'Siii' celebration. 'Si' means yes in Spanish. Cristiano Ronaldo said in a snippet that the celebration originated from his time at Real Madrid. The Juventus forward said, "When we all won, they said siiii! I started saying it, I don't know why. It came naturally to me. Remember the preseason in Los Angeles. We played against Chelsea, I scored a goal and I did this (the 'siii' celebration)."

In the Serie A, Juventus are closely followed by Antonio Conte's Inter Milan. They trail Juventus by 3 points, but have a game in hand.
