Juventus Clinch Third Consecutive Serie A Title Without Kicking a Ball
By BBC Sport
Juventus have been crowned Serie A champions for the third year in a row after title rivals AS Roma suffered a crushing 4-1 defeat at the hands of Catania on Sunday. With two games left to play, the result leaves the Bianconeri unassailable, securing the club’s 30th Scudetto in its storied history.
Roma’s shock defeat ensured Juventus retained an eight-point lead at the top of the table, a margin that can no longer be overturned. It’s a moment of celebration for the Turin giants, who have dominated Italian football under manager Antonio Conte, combining defensive resilience with attacking precision throughout the campaign.
While Juventus won’t take to the pitch until Monday—when they host Atalanta in front of their home fans at Juventus Stadium—the title confirmation has already sparked celebrations among their supporters. The atmosphere in Turin is expected to be jubilant as the team plays with the pressure off and the trophy secured.
This triumph brings a welcome lift for the club following Thursday’s disappointment in the Europa League. Juventus were eliminated in the semi-finals, missing the chance to contest the final, which will ironically be held at their own stadium on May 14.
The 30th league title further cements Juventus’ status as Italy’s most successful club and adds to the legacy of icons such as Alessandro Del Piero, Gianluigi Buffon, and Andrea Pirlo, whose leadership and quality have been vital to the club’s success in recent years.
Monday’s fixture will now serve as a victory lap for Conte’s men, who have once again proven themselves as the dominant force in Italian football. The season may not end with European silverware, but another domestic triumph confirms Juventus’ continued supremacy at home.
