Juventus Celebrate Title With 10th Successive League Win

Juventus celebrated the Serie A title in style with a 10th successive league win.

Hernanes and Simone Zaza scored the goals as Juventus extended their club record for successive home clean sheets to 10.

They were crowned champions for the fifth season in a row on Monday when Napoli, their closest challengers, lost to Roma.

And their players celebrated with fans after maintaining their stunning form.

Hernanes’ first-half strike and Simone Zaza’s late header helped Massimiliano Allegri’s men brush aside relegation-threatened Carpi.

They can complete a double by beating AC Milan in the Italian cup final on 21 May.

“I am happy with the win,” Allegri said. “It was a good one to get because the crowd was smaller than usual, after the celebrations and such.

“It pleased me that we did not concede a goal. Now we are thinking about the last two games and then the Coppa Italia final, which we are all looking forward to.”

Juventus Close To Fifth Successive Title

Juventus moved closer to a fifth successive Serie A title with a 1-0 home victory over Empoli.

Alvaro Morata hit the crossbar for the hosts with a long-range effort before Mario Mandzukic headed in from Paul Pogba’s chip just before half-time.

Riccardo Saponara had Empoli’s best chance but he shot over.

The victory takes Juventus six points above Napoli, who play away at Udinese in their game in hand on Sunday.

Massimiliano Allegri’s side had chances to extend their lead but Kwadwo Asamoah just failed to reach the ball after Lukasz Skorupski spilled Morata’s drive.

In the closing minutes, Morata ran down the left wing and pulled the ball back for Simone Zaza, whose shot was saved by Skorupski.
