Campioni d'Italia Juve celebrated their title with a 2-2 draw in the party atmosphere of the Stadio Armando Picchi.
The Bianconeri had the luxury of celebrating their 28th Scudetto with their feet up, as Milan's failure to beat Palermo on Friday evening automatically crowned them the Champions of Italy. Livorno also had precious little to play for, so there was a party atmosphere at the Stadio Armando Picchi. The Amaranto were nonetheless eager to impress after three consecutive defeats and this was above all a farewell for Igor Protti, who is hanging up his boots at the age of 37 with the title of Livorno's all-time top scorer.
Juve had not paid visit to Livorno since 1949 and surprisingly dropped captain Alessandro Del Piero to the bench.
The Bianconeri took the lead after 10 minutes with a splendid strike from Pavel Nedved. Olivier Kapo's pass found the Czech just inside the area and he curled a right-foot effort into the far corner.
Protti was brought down by Gianluigi Buffon in the penalty area moments later, but there was no penalty as the offside flag had already been raised.
Veteran hitman Protti was again dangerous, springing the offside trap and firing over the bar from a tight angle. He was later closed down by an attentive Fabio Cannavaro in another similar move.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was enjoying himself with some spectacular touches and tested Mareggini with an angled drive.
Protti was tearing the Juve defence apart and curled his right-foot shot over Buffon only to clip the top of the crossbar.
Fabio Capello wanted to include everyone in the Juventus experience and introduced Antonio Chimenti and Marcelo Zalayeta.
Protti finally got his goal 90 seconds after the restart. The veteran rose to nod in Giallombardo's cross from the left and forced Chimenti to pull the ball out of the net almost immediately.
It was a party at the Stadio Picchi and Cristiano Lucarelli also added to his tally for the season by giving Livorno the lead. The hitman was at full stretch to turn in Gennaro Ruotolo's cross from six yards.
Protti was given a standing ovation when substituted by Tomas Danilevicius and was clearly moved by the occasion.
Juventus equalised with David Trezeguet, who spun round his marker and placed a low drive into the far corner with Mareggini immobile.
