The Bianconeri's last home match of the season will be on Sunday, May 28, 2023, at 20:45, against AC Milan. "It should be a beautiful game, to be approached with seriousness and responsibility." That's what Mister Massimiliano Allegri said during the pre-match press conference at the Allianz Stadium.
ONE FINAL EFFORT
"I asked the boys for one final effort to finish this season on a high note. We missed a great opportunity against Empoli to stay in the race for Champions League qualification, and now the door is very narrow. It's a shame, despite many mitigating factors, that one was a game we should have won. Now we have to focus only on the present, which is tomorrow, and then there'll be the final game in Udine. After that, we will evaluate this season, that has undoubtedly been a difficult one, and start planning for the next one.
ASSESSMENTS AND OBJECTIVES
"We must not forget that we are currently in second place "on the field", and maintaining that should be our focus for these last two matches. Furthermore, securing a place in Europe, despite the penalties, would be a good result. It has been a complicated season, for many months, especially off the field, and it hasn't been easy to maintain focus. We could have done better, especially in the Champions League, but we almost reached two finals and have a second-place position to hold on to. I am a "company man", and I want to emphasise that I have never imposed any vetoes of any kind. I recently spoke with the ownership, and nothing has changed from the past. I have two more years on my contract, and during that time, our objective will be to bring Juventus back to the top in Italy and in the League.
LINEUP DOUBTS
"Chiesa might start from the first minute: he also had a transitional season, which is normal after his recovery; the next one should be the season of his consecration. Doubts about tomorrow? Vlahovic and Alex Sandro."
