The “Colchoneros” played at their usual level last season. There was no talk of a championship fight. Even the surprising Girona surpassed the capital club in the battle for third place, but the fourth position was more than enough to secure a spot in the main European club tournament.
In the Champions League, Diego Simeone’s team had no trouble in the group stage, and in the first knockout round, they surprisingly eliminated last year’s finalist, Inter Milan. However, they couldn’t pull off the same feat against Borussia Dortmund. In preparation for the new season, the “Colchoneros” have already played three friendlies, defeating Getafe and Kitchee, and drawing with Numancia.
Last season, the “Old Lady” couldn’t compete for the gold medals, but the team achieved its main objective. By finishing in third place in the standings, Juventus secured a spot in the Champions League. Additionally, the “Bianconeri” added the Coppa Italia to their trophy cabinet, defeating Atalanta 1-0 in the final.
Considering their recent challenging seasons, this was a significant success for the Turin club. It is worth noting that Juventus started last season under the management of Massimiliano Allegri. However, after a decline in results over the winter, the management decided to change the head coach and brought in Thiago Motta.
