The Serie A title was very important to the Uventus team, but they had won it the previous year.
They had no lack of Serie A trophies in their cabinet, however, the Champions League trophy was something the Uventus team greatly coveted.
It had been 24 years since they last won the famous trophy.
Now, with the Champions League final once again looming before them, the fans and the management would never forgive any slip-ups that could reduce their chances in the Champions League.
This was why Pirlo was being especially careful with his players, however, he also knew that despite the Champions League being the focus of the Uventus fans and the management at the table, they would not accept falling behind in the league either.
Unfortunately, he was now in a situation where those two things were at stake.
