Season summary

Juventus and Trapattoni's ways got distance each other, with the coach taken from Internazionale and Rino Marchesi called to replace him.[1] Reigning champion tried to retain domestic title, but met in Napoli a difficult opponent.[2] European hopes were stopped in autumn,[3][4] due to shoot-out loss against Real Madrid.[5][6]

The following Sunday, Juventus was also beaten by partenopei.[7] They proved to be a stronger team than bianconeri,[8][9] defeating them even in retour match.[10] Marchesi managed, eventually, to reach second place thank Inter's stop in last game.[11] It also signed Platini's retirement, announced from him after Juventus-Brescia.[12]
