With two trophies being added to their cabinet within a week, the Uventus training ground had an air of ease and confidence as the players came to training.
There was still one Serie A game left, but the results didn't matter too much, though the manager wanted the Uventus team to end the season on a strong note, however, he would not compromise for the Champions League finals, which was a few days away.
With that in mind, Pirlo selected a lineup with mostly youth and reserve players for the game.
The first team players had to be rested after playing game after game for week after week, and it was finally time for the reserve players to shine.
The reserve and youth players didn't take this chance lightly either, as they knew that their future could depend on this match.
If they performed well enough to catch the manager's eye, then they could become a part of the manager's plan for the upcoming season.
