Now we're really here! Juventus also conquers Florence and prepares to celebrate the 32nd Scudetto, the fifth consecutive under the Agnelli management. The Champagne could already be uncorked today in the event of Napoli's failure to win against Roma, a scenario which, paradoxically, does not inflame Juventus fans: in fact, the majority would prefer to postpone everything until next week, when a stadium dressed up to the nines will receive the Carpi.
“But we hope that the Giallorossi will help us immediately – joked Allegri. – This victory in Florence is very important, if Napoli don't score 3 points they will win the Scudetto otherwise we'll take it next Sunday”. By now hiding no longer makes sense and even the Juventus coach, so far very buttoned up in the forecasts, has decided to come out into the open. On the other hand, not doing so would mean hiding the evidence: Juventus have long had their hands on the title, ever since the extraordinary comeback began which allowed them to score 24 wins and a draw in their last 25 games, an extraordinary score which he earned 73 points out of the 75 available.
“We had a memorable season and we have to top it off in the best possible way – continued Allegri. – Everyone thought we were doomed, the coach had to be kicked out… Instead we always need a lot of calm in our judgements, we started the championship too cheerfully but we were good at getting back up. It was almost impossible to do something like that." The bianconeri succeeded at the end of a sensational ride, which culminated with yesterday's victory in Florence.
Crazy match that of the Franchi, in perfect harmony with the story of Fiorentina-Juventus. It all started with a (regular) goal disallowed by Bernardeschi due to a non-existent offside, it continued with Mandzukic's lead (39', at the end of a spectacular play involving Khedira and Pogba), it seemed to have ended in a draw by Kalinic (81', right footed after a sensational ball lost by Bonucci). But no, the film still had a lot to say, just like the best thrillers in the industry.
Two minutes after the violated goal Juve, hungry as never before, found the new advantage with Morata (83 ', winning tap-in on the development of a corner), mortgaging the game, match and match. But the match still had a couple of twists in store: in the 90th minute Tagliavento conceded a very generous penalty to Fiorentina for a contact between Cuadrado and Kalinic: the Croatian striker himself went on the penalty spot but Buffon hypnotized both him and Bernardeschi on the rebound, the exclamation point on the black and white tricolor.
Indeed no, the former Dnipro striker still put it by hitting the crossbar in full stoppage time, the last emotion of a beautiful game, a worthy epilogue to a simply incredible ride.
