Juventus Secure Champions League Spot, Venezia Relegated in Serie A Finale

Juventus narrowly secured a Champions League spot for the next season by winning 3-2 against relegated Venezia on the final day of Serie A, finishing one point ahead of AS Roma, who qualified for the Europa League despite a 2-0 win over Torino. Manuel Locatelli's late penalty was decisive in clinching Juventus' victory, while Venezia and Empoli were relegated. Lazio missed out on European competition after a 1-0 home loss to 10-man Lecce, allowing Fiorentina to take the Conference League spot with a 3-2 win over Udinese. Claudio Ranieri's appointment as Roma's coach mid-season sparked a remarkable turnaround, with the team losing just once in the latter half of the campaign. The final round was marked by dramatic simultaneous matches involving teams fighting for European places and to avoid relegation, intensifying the season's conclusion. Juventus' coach Igor Tudor, who replaced Thiago Motta, achieved the primary goal of Champions League qualification under challenging circumstances.
