  1. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Conte still unsure of Juve future despite 'historic' Scudetto The 44-year-old says he must sit down with the club and evaluate his future after picking up a third consecutive league title. May 6, 2014 Antonio Conte says will hold talks in the summer about staying at Juventus next season after securing a "historic" Serie A title. As a result of Roma's 4-1 defeat to Catania on Sunday, the Bianconeri were confirmed champions for the third consecutive time before Monday's 1-0 win over Atalanta. Conte praised his team for their magnificent achievements over the last few years, but hinted that he is still unsure if he will remain with the club beyond 2013-14. "I’d call this a historic Scudetto. That's the most suitable word for what this team has done over the last three years, especially after finishing seventh twice in a row," he told reporters. "What this team has done in Italy can't be improved upon. Those close to me know what I put into the team and what the players have put into it with me. "We have always said, along with the club, that we’ll talk it over when the situation calms down and analyse every aspect. These have been three very intense and stressful years. "We need to sit down, confront our opinions on matters and, in a relaxed manner, see what the situation is. “I don’t want to say I need reassurances. I will say what I need to say with the club, so together we can evaluate what is best for Juventus. I want what is best for Juventus, in every way." Conte was then asked if he could take a sabbatical from coaching this summer and he pressed the point that he loved the club without committing either way. "No, I just need to talk to the club and we’ll make the necessary evaluations," he said. "I am a Juventino, I was even when I went around the country to work as a coach and learn. "I am now that I am the Juventus coach and will be in the future. It is my family." http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  2. Pogba: 'Juve move great for me' May 6, 2014 Paul Pogba confessed he “wants to be like” Juventus teammate Andrea Pirlo and his decision to quit Manchester United was “great.” The 21-year-old Frenchman spoke to the BBC about his career and watching tapes of Pele and Diego Maradona. He opted to leave Manchester United at the age of 19 when his contract expired and has gone from strength to strength in Turin. “I’ve made a great decision coming here from Manchester United. I’m thankful to them every day because that’s where I gained the experience that prepared me for training with big players like Pirlo, Vidal, Marchisio and Buffon. I’m grateful to United but now I’m at Juventus and I’m happy here. “Being with Pirlo is just great – you learn every day with him and you just enjoy your football when you see him play. He’s been a top player for many years now and when you watch him you just want to be like him! “I think I need to work my offensive headers because with my height I could score more goals from corner kicks. I think I need to improve on everything though – that’s what you need to do to be a complete player.” Pogba will be in the France squad for the World Cup and is enjoying work with another ex-Juventus figure, Coach Didier Deschamps. “It’s a dream to be involved in the World Cup with the senior side. We’re a good group and we get on out there on the pitch. “When the Coach is an ex-player I think it’s easier because he understands us better. He can give me great advice, even more so because he used to play in the same position as me and he knows what comes with it. That’s something that can help a player like me.” The same could also apply to Juventus boss Antonio Conte.
  3. Pirlo: 'I'm still having fun' May 6, 2014 Andrea Pirlo joked he’s “too old for PSG,” will continue playing as long as he enjoys himself and hailed Paul Pogba and Marco Verratti. The veteran Italy midfielder has now won four consecutive Scudetto titles, as he was in Milan’s squad before the three-year winning streak at Juve. “My main motivation is just to play football, because it is something I adore,” 34-year-old Pirlo told French newspaper L’Equipe. “I have fun on the field and really enjoy it. Fortunately, even today, every morning I arrive at the training ground or each time I arrive at the stadium for a match, I still feel pleasure. I do not feel tired or fed up, it’s fun. “The day I no longer feel that sensation I will undoubtedly go and do something else instead.” For all his success, including the 2006 World Cup with Italy, Pirlo has never tried the experience of a foreign League. “It’s true, I would’ve liked to try that. I had several opportunities to do so in the past and they came around regularly. At the end of the day, I chose to remain in Italy. “We’ll see in future, why not? PSG? No, I’m too old for PSG! I want to stay at Juventus for a few more years, as I am very happy here. “As soon as I arrived, I realised the desire to do better. The club had an ambitious project that took us to this point.” If Pirlo is too old for Paris Saint-Germain, then the club is targeting his Juventus teammate Pogba. “He will become a great champion. He just needs a little more time to grow and reach that pantheon. “As for Marco Verratti, he plays with a different style to me. He is very good at short passing. Everyone has to make the best of their qualities. He has a lot of talent and is still so young, but he already plays in the Champions League for an ambitious club like PSG. The future belongs to him.”
  4. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ 'We want to break 100 points' - Giovinco The 27-year-old says his side fully deserved to win the league but hope to set a new points record for the Italian top flight. May 6, 2014 Sebastian Giovinco says winning the Scudetto is not enough for Juventus and has set his sights on finishing the season with at least 100 points. Roma's loss at Catania on Sunday guaranteed Juve a third-successive Scudetto before Monday's victory over Atalanta. Antonio Conte's men now sit on 96 points with two games remaining and Giovinco says the squad are now focused on becoming the first Serie A side to reach three figures for the campaign. "Celebrating with a victory makes it even sweeter," he told the club's official website after the win. "We're now going for our other objective, a 100-point finish. "We always believed we could win the Scudetto, even though Roma had a fine season. "It's a title victory we've fully deserved." http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  5. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Initial reaction and random observations May 6, 2014 We've spent a lot of time around these parts using Simone Padoin as the butt of quite a number of jokes. But when we look at the final scoresheet after Juventus' 1-0 win over Atalanta on Monday night, only one person's name will be listed as scoring a goal — Simone Padoin. Yes, that same Padoin who has been Antonio Conte's human victory cigar the past couple of seasons. The same Padoin who has, somehow, continued to remain on the Juventus roster through one of the greatest runs we've seen the club make on the domestic level. The same Padoin who now has as many Scudetti as Roma do as a club. Magic? More like ... we'll just go with magic. Juventus' Scudetto party was exactly that. The singing in the stadium started well before the opening kickoff and certainly lasted well after the final whistle blew. It was a night to celebrate — and the win was just something that put the icing on the cake. JuventusFC ✔ @juventusfcen #Conte: “These lads are extraordinary. We've had three intense campaigns and I can only thank each and every one of them.” #JuveX3 But who figured that SImone Padoin, the man who is basically the definition of Mr. Ordinary, would be the won who go his team's game-winning goal on the night they celebrated a third straight Scudetto? This sport can be predictable at times. Or it can be like it was tonight — a game where Simone freaking Padoin scored a pretty decent goal to make sure Juve's Scudetto party had three points tagging alongside. Although, with that being said... Vittorio Pazzini @vittoriopazzini Unless Giovinco does something great, this might take an A-List sub to seal the three points. This is a total Scudetto hangover match. BWRAO @JuventusNation @vittoriopazzini Padoin in the 86th minute. Close enough, right? Not bad for being completely sarcastic at the time. I take full credit. On that note, I'll just shut up and let the players sing. https://mtc.cdn.vine.co/r/videos/0672B566E01075207887619563520_1399323731876de5e1ac599.mp4.mp4?versionId=gethhRxQ4o9wNUQnpr6aoBNLoxMqYSHX What was it that Notorious BIG said? "Throw your hands in the air if you a true player... Random thoughts and observations • Juventus' home record in Serie A this season: 18 games played, 18 wins. That's pretty good. • Juventus are on 96 points with two games to go. That's pretty good. • Today was Antonio Conte's 100th win as Juventus manager. That's pretty good, too. • A lot of the post-game quotes was about the season as a whole rather than the game itself. That's pretty • If you haven't seen it by now, Giorgio Chiellini and Carlos Tévez almost slept through Juve's Scudetto celebration at the team hotel on Sunday. That would have been an all-timer if they did. Kids these days, I tell ya... • Some people were shooting the BWRAO Twitter account complaints about Conte's performance in Europe minutes before kickoff. Come on, people. We can talk about that another day. But not this day. Enjoy the party. Winning three straight titles doesn't happen often. We're witnessing history right in front of our own eyes. • Idiots. It doesn't matter how many people were involved. Idiots. That's all I have to say on that matter. • Read into this as you wish... Aaron Giambattista @agiamba Conte- "I need to understand if I have the strength to move forward. I'll speak with the club, but I am and always be a Juventino." In a way, it could very well be the flat-out exhaustion from Conte's end talking here. It's been a stressful nine months for Conte (as I'm sure it almost always is). You see the way he coaches on the sideline each game and I just imagine him getting home and collapsing in bed, sleeping for hours on end. It could also be a little double message to the Juve board as well. "Give me the players to really do damage on more fronts." That'd be fine with me, honestly. But there's going to be a whole lot of reading into the quote above by people who get paid money to speculate about calcio things. The Italian press will certainly get a bump in sales after they go through a round or two of "Will Conte stay or go?" mumbo jumbo. • Simone Padoin scored the game's only goal — a pretty good one, at that. I'm still laughing, still somewhat dumbfounded by it all. Magic? Magic. BWRAO @JuventusNation We are all Simone Padoin. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  6. Bonucci: 'Sassuolo decisive moment' May 5, 2014 Leonardo Bonucci believes the 3-1 victory at Sassuolo was “the moment Juventus really clinched the title.” The Bianconeri had been 1-0 down to the relegation strugglers, but fought back for a 3-1 win to maintain the eight-point gap from Roma. “I think that period when we notched up a series of 1-0 wins was the key to winning the Scudetto. However, I maintain Sassuolo was the moment we really clinched the title,” Bonucci told Sky Sport Italia. “Those who were chasing us had a great campaign, but they came up against a Juventus side that was remarkable. “We have always said that with the statistics they put together, in any other year Roma would’ve won the Scudetto. Unfortunately for them – fortunately for us! – Juve had a campaign that broke all records. “When you win, it is the best medicine for any problems, so we want to continue along this path, so we can keep winning in Italy and resume winning in Europe. “In Europe when you make a mistake, you pay a heavy price. That’s what we did this season and I include myself in that. “We did well in Serie A to maintain concentration at the highest level at all times, proving in every game that we wanted this at all costs.”
  7. Llorente: 'Spectacular debut year' May 5, 2014 Fernando Llorente feels he’s had a “spectacular” debut Serie A season, winning the Scudetto with Juventus. “It’s spectacular to come here and win the Scudetto in my first season. It’s incredible, a dream for me, and now after such hard work we can enjoy it,” he told Sky Sport Italia. “We have many things that need to be improved, but work is the right path forward. We have Antonio Conte with us and hope to do better every year.” They had already secured the title on Sunday thanks to Roma’s 4-1 defeat at Catania, but beat Atalanta 1-0 this evening in Turin. “We had to play in order to win, as we can still set a new record for points in a single season. “I am truly happy, as I was always told it would not be easy in my first year in Italy, but I’m happy with the work I did for the team.”
  8. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Player Ratings A solitary goal from Simone Padoin against his former club was enough to extend Juve's 100% home record, securing yet another win before the presentation of the Serie A title. May 5, 2014 JUVENTUS Marco Storari - A solid outing from the Juve keeper, keeping Atalanta at bay with a few comfortable saves. Deserved clean sheet. Andrea Barzagli - Made a couple of important interceptions and clearances, getting across well to challenge with Denis to prevent a late chance for the visitors. Angelo Ogbonna - Another composed performance from the former Torino man, making an important block in the first half to deny Denis. Giorgio Chiellini - Made a couple of poor defensive headers, but was generally a solid part of a brilliant Juve defensive machine. Powerful and dominant. Stephan Lichtsteiner - Tireless running from the Swiss wing-back yet again, but he didn't create a great deal of opportunities for his side. PAUL POGBA - A classy performance from the young Frenchman, who showcased his ability with a number of beautiful pieces of skill. Went close twice from range. Claudio Marchisio - Provided real energy from deep and picked out a few intelligent penetrative passes. Simone Padoin - Capped his performance with a wonderful finish, firing a low drive in off the post after gambling on the loose ball falling to him. Federico Peluso - Not a very expansive game from the wing-back, but he performed his defensive job solidly, not giving Atalanta any joy down the right. Sebastian Giovinco - A fairly lively first half from the diminutive forward, who went close on two occasions and linked up with Osvaldo well. Replaced at the break. Pablo Daniel Osvaldo - Played a few nice flick-ons and was denied by a smart header from Osvaldo. A reasonable performance, but a league goal eluded him. Substitutions Carlos Tévez - The Argentine acted as an offensive catalyst and was busy around the penalty area, forcing Consigli into a couple of saves and missed a brilliant late chance. Fabio Quagliarella - Wasn't afraid to shoot from range and should have picked up a late assist, but for the poor finishing of Tevez. ATALANTA Andrea Consigli - The goalkeeper made couple of top saves to deny Osvaldo, but could do nothing to prevent Padoin's effort from nestling in the back of the net. Gianpaolo Bellini - The right-back kept tabs on Peluso and ensured that plenty of the wing-back's crosses were charged down successfully. Stefano Lucchini - Replaced at the break, but the Italian defender did a solid enough job of ensuring that Osvaldo stayed with his back to goal. Mario Yepes - Made a number of brilliant interceptions, before being removed from the field on a stretcher in the second half after colliding with Padoin's knee. Davide Brivio - Pushed forward to support the attack whenever possible, but his crossing was rather poor. Cristian Raimondi - Stood no chance of having any luck against the solid combination of Chiellini and Peluso down the Juve left and therefore had a very quiet evening. Carlos Carmona - The Chilean didn't offer much going forward, failing to test Storari or give Denis the service that he needed. Daniele Baselli - Very positive performance, unafraid to shoot from range, forcing Storari into two reasonable saves. Went closest for the away side. Giacomo Bonaventura - Cut inside from the left hand side and fired a few reasonable shots at Storari's net. Atalanta's main offensive driving force. Maximiliano Moralez - Picked out a few wonderful passes in search of Denis, but didn't carve out any opportunities for himself. Dropped deeper and created well. Germán Denis - Saw a first half shot blocked by Ogbonna, before being penalised for a trip on Barzagli in the second with the move having resulted in the Argentine dancing around Storari and poking the ball home. Substitutions Yohan Benalouane - A solid replacement for Lucchini, as the Frenchman continued to ensure that Osvaldo had a very ineffectual game. Marcelo Estigarribia - Gave away a free-kick which was involved in the build-up to Padoin's goal and despite his tireless energy, the Paraguay international didn't have the cutting edge required. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  9. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Juventus Celebrate Scudetto with Win May 5, 2014 Juventus celebrated their third consecutive Serie A title with yet another victory, winning 1-0 at home to Atalanta on Monday evening at Juventus Stadium. Simone Padoin—playing against his former club—scored the game's only goal in the 72nd minute as the Bianconeri took a figurative victory lap after clinching the Scudetto on Sunday without even playing. As B/R's Anthony Lopopolo noted via Twitter, the low stakes and relaxed atmosphere made Monday's match feel something like an exhibition: Anthony Lopopolo @sportscaddy Feel like this Juve game is just a venue for the fans to celebrate. Not much quality on display. With the win, Juventus moved on to 96 points, 11 ahead of second-placed Roma with two matches left. Roma lost 4-1 at Catania on Sunday to hand the title to Juve. The victory also maintained the Bianconeri's 100 percent home record this season. Having won all 18 matches at Juventus Stadium, Antonio Conte's side can finish off a perfect home campaign with a win over Cagliari on the final day of the season. In addition, Juve can finish with 100 points for the season by claiming at least four over their final two matches. But while Juve had plenty of reason to celebrate Monday evening, Conte and company will still see room for improvement next season—notably in European competition. After departing the UEFA Champions League at the group stage earlier this season, Juventus had turned their sights toward playing for the Europa League title in their home stadium in the May 14 final. But that dream ended last week in the semi-finals following a scoreless draw at home to Benfica in the second leg—a result that sent the Portuguese side through to the final. But according to Conte, the Europa League run will help Juventus grow next season as they seek another league title and greater continental success. As quoted by Football Italia, Conte said: “I watched (the semi-final) back and the sensations I had from the touchline were correct. I am very satisfied with the growth of my team and its consolidation in Europe. Dropping down into the Europa League helped us to grow, as it was the first time for many in the squad. We still proved we are on a par with the big clubs and have what it takes to challenge in the major competitions.” With the title wrapped up, Juventus rested a number of regular starters as players such as goalkeeper Marco Storari, midfielder Padoin and forwards Sebastian Giovinco and Pablo Dani Osvaldo came into the starting lineup. Giovinco had the first good chance for the home side, shooting just wide from distance in the fifth minute. In the 26th minute, Osvaldo's looping header—Juve's only shot on target of the first half—was tipped over the bar. Atalanta also managed just one attempt on target before half-time, Daniele Baselli shooting straight at Storari in the 32nd minute. With the match still scoreless at half-time, Juventus continued to search for the opening goal after the break. Osvaldo had another opportunity in the 64th minute but volleyed over the bar. Two minutes later, half-time substitute Fabio Quagliarella saw his shot saved before Pogba, too, was denied on the rebound. Carlos Tevez, who had entered the match moments earlier, then shot off target from the second rebound. The breakthrough finally came in the 72nd minute as Padoin found the scoresheet against his former club. Giorgio Chiellini started the move, slotting a pass to Pogba, who played the ball on with a clever back-heel. The target appeared to be Tevez, but the Argentine allowed the ball to roll to Padoin, who finished first time off the inside of the far post. Juve's celebrations were dampered, however, by an injury to Atalanta's Mario Yepes, who collided with Padoin's leg while trying to block the latter's shot. Yepes was stretchered off, with his neck in a brace, in the 77th minute, when he was replaced by Constantin Nica. Mirroring the first half, Atalanta managed only a single shot on target in the second half, Baselli shooting tamely at Storari in the 87th minute. In stoppage time, Tevez had a chance to double Juve's lead just before the final whistle, but he directed his shot off target. It mattered little, however, as the celebrations began shortly afterward.

  10. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Padoin crowns Scudetto celebrations May 5, 2014 Juventus beat Atalanta 1-0 at the Juventus Stadium on Monday night in Serie A. Simone Padoin grabbed the only goal of the game with a smart finish late on in the second half. The Bianconeri had already secured the title on Saturday thanks to Roma’s 4-1 loss to Catania which allowed this occasion to be nothing more than a celebration of acquiring their third successive Scudetto. The game started off as quite a slow burner, with both teams getting early touches of the ball. Antonio Conte put out a mixture of first teamers and reserves and Sebastian Giovinco had the first shot of the match which fell just wide of Andrea Consigli’s post. Giovinco would soon get another sight of goal in the opening quarter as he worked a smart one two with attacking compatriot Pablo Osvaldo but the striker ended up pulling his shot disappointingly wide. The half chances continued to come and Atalanta’s German Denis got the Nerazzurri’s first shot of the game which was blocked and then down the over end Osvaldo saw his snapshot fly over the crossbar. The match continued to produce little chances and just before the half hour we witnessed our first save of the game, Consigli tipping over smartly from a looping Osvaldo header. As the half progressed there would be not even be any half chances except poor optimistic strikes by Claudio Marchisio and Paul Pogba. The referee thankfully then brought to a close a pretty dire half of football The second half began with a lovely move from Juventus when some clever interchanging ended up finding its way to substitute Fabio Quagliarella, who had his first touch and shot of the game which flew well over the goal. The half then started to replicate the first half but with even less shots being taken by either side. Denis saw an acrobatic shot fly wide of the post before Quagliarella hit a free kick straight into the wall and those efforts were the only ones of interest as the match hit the hour mark. Quagliarella then turned provider when he dinked a ball over the Atalanta back line only for Osvaldo to toe poke his effort wide. Some urgency from Juventus finally allowed some speed to be injected into the game and Consigli did well to deny both Marchisio and Pogba in quick succession as the pace of the game quickened somewhat. Twenty minutes from the end a goal finally came. Simone Padoin, the former Atalanta man, stroked the ball home across goal after no one dealt with the initial ball across the edge of the box. Conte elected to then bring on Simone Pepe, who had barely played in the last two years due to injury as Juventus closed out the game and the Scudetto celebrations continued. The result meant Juventus have won all eighteen of their home matches so far this season and they could keep a 100% win record at home for the campaign if they defeat Cagliari in the final game. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  11. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Padoin for Juve Scudetto party Simone Padoin gave Juventus a 1-0 win over Atalanta in this celebration of a third consecutive Scudetto. May 5, 2014 The result keeps them on track for more records, as they are close to 97 points in a single season and managing a 100 per cent record on home turf. This was one huge party, as on Sunday afternoon Roma lost 4-1 at Catania, mathematically handing the third consecutive Serie A title to Juve. Atalanta were also in a mood to celebrate, having secured their safety with mid-table comfort, welcoming back Maxi Moralez from injury. Antonio Conte fielded an all-new line-up to ensure everyone got in on the festivities. Sebastian Giovinco drilled just wide from distance, while Angelo Ogbonna charged down a German Denis effort in the box. Giovinco and Daniel Osvaldo blasted more attempts just off target, but Giacomo Bonaventura burst into the box and was only stopped by a last-ditch and extremely risky Stephan Lichtsteiner tackle. An Osvaldo looping header was palmed out from under the bar and from the resulting corner Ogbonna nodded over. Marco Storari smothered a Daniele Baselli effort, while Denis at full stretch just failed to get on the end of a Maxi Moralez cross to the back post. Fabio Quagliarella was introduced for the second half and drilled over the bar at the end of a wonderful team move with several one-touch passes. Denis turned an overhead kick off target, which was flagged offside anyway, and Paul Pogba hit a powerful finish over the bar. Osvaldo completed a give-and-go with Quagliarella only to volley inches over the bar. Andrea Consigli needed a splendid double save on 67 minutes, parrying Quagliarella’s shot at the near post, getting back up to deny Pogba and then seeing substitute Carlos Tevez fire off target. The deadlock was finally broken when Tevez flicked on a Pogba backheel pass for Simone Padoin, whose angled drive from the edge of the box went in off the inside of the upright. It was a rare goal from Padoin against his former club. Mario Yepes had come sliding in to block the shot, but was accidentally kneed in the head. Medics applied a neckbrace before stretchering the Colombian off the field. Simone Pepe was given a run-out in the final minutes, as the winger has barely set foot on the field for two years due to a series of thigh and tendon injuries. Marco Storari also finally had something to do, beating away a fierce Daniele Baselli snapshot. It should've been 2-0 with the final kick of the game, but Quagliarella rolled across for Tevez to prod wide of an open goal. Juventus: Storari; Barzagli, Ogbonna, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner (Pepe 84), Padoin, Marchisio, Pogba, Peluso; Osvaldo (Tevez 65), Giovinco (Quagliarella 46) Atalanta: Consigli; Bellini, Lucchini (Benalouane 46), Yepes (Nica 77), Brivio; Raimondi (Estigarribia 64), Carmona, Baselli, Bonaventura; Maxi Moralez; Denis Ref: De Marco http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
  12. JUVENTUS 1 - 0 ATALANTA Simone Padoin (72′) May 5, 2014 - 9:00 PM Juventus Stadium — Turin Referee:‬ Andrea De Marco Attendance:‬ 38000‎ Champions' party continues with another win Antonio Conte's men picked up a narrow victory over the visitors just a day after it was confirmed that they had won the Italian top flight once again. May 5, 2014 Simone Padoin scored the only goal of the game against his former club Atalanta as Juventus celebrated sealing the Serie A title with a win. Roma's defeat to Catania on Sunday secured Juve's third consecutive league crown, and the 30th in their history, without Antonio Conte's men even having to play. In their first game since their latest title was sealed, Padoin netted his first goal for the club to secure a 31st league victory of the season four days after Thursday's Europa League semi-final exit at the hands of Benfica. After a sluggish opening hour that saw Pablo Osvaldo waste three chances, Juventus were sparked into life by the introduction of Fabio Quagliarella and Carlos Tevez. The former had two chances soon after coming on at half-time, and his Argentine team-mate could have netted with his first touch in the 69th minute but it fell to Padoin to strike the decisive blow with a well-taken low finish. One goal was enough for the home fans to raise the volume up another notch as yet another win move Turin giants on to 96 points and well on course to break the 100-point barrier with two games remaining, while the visitors remain 11th. With the title in the bag Conte rested the majority of his first team regulars and lined up with nine Italian players in his starting line-up, including goalkeeper Marco Storari coming in for Gianluigi Buffon. Sebastian Giovinco was also given a rare start and the striker wasted two early chances to put the champions in front. On both occasions the former Parma man was able to find space on the edge of the penalty area, but dragged his shots wide of Andrea Consigli's goal. Osvaldo sent a long-range effort over the crossbar as the hosts applied pressure, but were unable to find a way through and Atalanta were equally as wasteful on their rare counter-attacks. Claudio Marchisio and Osvaldo had further openings to break the deadlock before the break, but were unable to find the back of the net. Quagliarella was introduced at the break at the expense of the wasteful Giovinco and he had a chance to spark the party into life in the opening minutes of the second half. An intricate passing move on the edge of the penalty area found the substitute with a clear sight of goal, but he blasted over the crossbar - much to the frustration of the home support. After intense pressure from the hosts that saw Tevez and Quagliarella go close, Juve finally found the back of the net through former Atalanta midfielder Padoin in the 72nd minute. Quagliarella let a pass from the left run across his body and the 30-year-old fired low into the bottom corner from the edge of the penalty area to seal all three points. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
