Juve celebrates the Scudetto with Sampdoria but thinks about the Italian Cup

Party yes, but without exaggerating. On the other hand, at Juventus they have already metabolized the Scudetto for some time, which is why the celebrations will be kept to a minimum. After the match against Sampdoria (17 pm) we will limit ourselves to the awards ceremony on stage, therefore without the usual open-top bus through the streets of Turin. “We will certainly have a dinner among us but I don't know where it will be yet – Allegri glossed over. – In any case, we certainly won't be doing 5 in the morning…”. In short, the head is already projected on the Italian Cup final, the last goal left before the "free all" at the end of the season. “The program includes a rest day on Sunday and then training until Friday – explained the coach. – It seems like yesterday that we started and instead we are already one step away from the last match”. The serenity of Juve is almost disarming, yet a small alarm bell has already sounded. The defeat in Verona, although very understandable, annoyed the club and the coach, so much so that the general alert was immediately triggered. “I didn't need to talk about it too much, they're smart guys and they know for themselves that, playing like that, you're not going anywhere – explained Allegri. – After winning the Scudetto and 25 of the last 26 games, there was also a defeat like this, indeed I think it can even do us good. Now, in fact, everyone is ready to plug it back in view of Milan." His head is already there, after all today's match has no implications for Juve or Sampdoria. The training, consequently, will be calibrated on the Cup final, with the exception of Bonucci, who is regularly on the field today and instead absent in Rome due to disqualification. The Juventus 3-5-2 will see Neto in goal, Barzagli, Bonucci and Chiellini in defense, Lichtsteiner, Pereyra, Hernanes, Pogba and Evra in midfield, Dybala and Mandzukic in attack. The great curiosity is above all for the median: in fact, in Rome, in addition to the long-term patient Marchisio, Khedira will almost certainly also be missing. "It's very difficult to be able to recover for the final" sighed Allegri, thus deciding to put his faith in Pereyra and Hernanes, protagonists of a season below expectations so far. Small flaws of an extraordinary team, which has even come to consider a Scudetto as normal administration.
