Fifteen years ago, the Scudetto came down to the final round of matches.
It would be an almost unthinkable scenario in today’s Serie A — a title race going right down to the wire — but, as it turned out, that afternoon in May 2002 delivered a result we’re not at all unfamiliar with, even now: a Juventus triumph.
David Trezeguet and Alessandro Del Piero scored in Bianconeri’s 2-0 win at Udinese, although they still required help from elsewhere.
They got it from Lazio, who upset Inter Milan and Ronaldo — playing his final match for the Nerazzurri — and the trophy returned to Turin after a three-year absence.
