The champions of Italy have struggled to fight their way through the defense of Valencia. Ju Ocanello let Ronaldo pass in the 59th minute of their Group Eight match.
Ronaldo managed to dodge Gabriel Paulista for a spot and then passed a low center against the goal around Manzukic in goal.
Juventus are leading the standings with 12 points in five games, while Valencia have pulled out of the competition after Manchester United, second in the standings, defeated the Young Boys.
With a need to draw to secure the qualification, Juventus did not take a lot of risks and saw the first half a single shot on goal from both teams.
Ronaldo tested Valencia Nieto's goalkeeper with a quick shot that the Brazilian goalkeeper easily handled. Juventus goaltender Vojciech Stensni was able to hit Mokhtar Diakapi's head at the end of the first half.
Ronaldo, who had been sent off in the previous two games, tried again with a free kick in the second half, but Nieto easily resisted.
Diakapi put the ball ahead of Juventus two minutes from Manzukic's goal, but the French defender used his arm to turn a free kick into the goal and the goal was canceled.
Nieto saved a shot from Paolo Debala and Manzukic almost scored again after a superb pass from Ronaldo. The Portuguese seized the balloon from the chest and returned it at once to his Argentine colleague.
