Thank you for a great season Juventus. It exceeded all expectations. This loss is vital experience for many of our young players that have little no experience in CL. Forza Juve per sempre.

Disappointing but not devastating. It was expected that Napoli will push more for the win after their disappointing season and that we will be still drunk from our amazing season. Even with these conditions we still showed up and tried making the match as even as it gets. The thing that makes me most disappointed is that was Del Piero's last match and it ended like that, ironic but considering how many finals this guy has lost ...
I thought Lichtsteiner was our worst player today together with Vidal and Marchisio who gave the ball away too cheaply and made a lot of mistakes.

I agree completely with this post. If anything, I held it against Conte that he didnt start Giaccherini and Marrone in the first 11.
And in any case, this was very cloise to our first 11, the defence was the best we had, the midfield was the best we had with the exception of Esti but I'm not sure who else could have played there, maybe Giacc, and in the attack only Vuci would play instead of Boriello, as Boriello has starterd in the league as well so its not sure matri would have started anyway.
So basically, a lot of people are saying that Conte ruined Del Piero's last match by not playing the first 11, but had he played the first 11 Del Piero would not have played, and then they would have said he ruined his last game for not playing him. Go figure.
The team field should be good enough to win. We only got our self to blame for this game. Mistake in defense allowed Napoli to get the penalty. Once they got the penalty , Juve played a more offensive line up and opened up more space to allow Napoli to counter. This game showed that we need quality on the bench as well, a couple of top notch quality players to cover when our main stay are out. Bonucci couldn't lead the defense without Chiellini , and Marchisio apart from the the couple of shots, didn't really showed much, that injury at the end of the game didn't help him much either.
It's sad to see Conte starting on the backfoot by choosing such a starting lineup. But with the refs being against us all game, there's no way we could've won it anyway. Pity that Del Piero didn't get the best send off. Now we can only look to the future and build on this great season.
Thank you, Conte. And thank you Ale!

napoli really wanted this, and played like we did all season, with aggression and determination. They way we played we wouldnt have won this no matter which players we fielded.
Props to conte for keeping his word and letting the players who got to the final, play the final. more important that the players know that conte keeps his word and is a man of honour, than potentially win a pretty meaningless cup.
