The final and decisive day of Serie A will determine the fate of the four Italian teams competing for spots in the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League.

Juventus are in the Champions League! Igor Tudor’s team beats Venezia 3-2 at the end of a crazy match, full of twists and turns, and secures fourth place.

No luck for Roma, who win 2-0 in Turin thanks to a penalty won by Saelemaekers and converted by Paredes, and a second-half goal by the Belgian. The Giallorossi believe until the end but miss out on overtaking at the photo finish.

The Giallorossi will play in the Europa League, just like Bologna, the winner of the Coppa Italia.

Who won’t play in Europe, however, is Lazio: Baroni’s team falls at home in their last match of the season against Lecce (saved by Coulibaly’s goal) and are overtaken by Fiorentina, who beat Udinese 3-2 away and snatch sixth place right at the death.

🎯 Nicolussi on Conceicao, Juve’s third from the spot: Locatelli!

Manuel Locatelli puts Juventus back in front in Venice: in the 73rd minute, the captain calmly converts a penalty awarded for a foul in the box by Nicolussi Caviglia on Conceicao.

But the lead doesn’t last long: Udinese immediately equalize through Kabasele, who takes advantage of a cross and a deflection from Gosens to beat David De Gea from close range. It’s 2-2 at the Bluenergy Stadium.

💣 Saelemaekers+Venezia: Roma overtake Juve

Roma double their lead at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino with Saelemaekers, the key man in the move.

In the 53rd minute, Soulé works the ball on the right and delivers a precise cross to the far post, where the Belgian heads home, helped by a mistake from the Torino defense.

During the celebration, news also comes in of Venezia’s 2-2 against Juventus: in the 55th minute, Haps finishes off a counterattack with a diagonal shot deflected by Savona, wrong-footing Di Gregorio.

Roma overtake the Bianconeri again, who slip back to fifth place.

💪 Fagioli scares Lazio: 1-1 Fiorentina in Udine

Fiorentina equalize early in the second half thanks to Nicolò Fagioli, who scores at the third attempt with a right-footed shot to Okoye’s left.

With this goal, Fiorentina close in on Lazio in the standings, moving up to sixth place.

😱 Lazio behind: 1-0 Coulibaly, Lecce down to 10

Coulibaly scores the goal that breaks the deadlock and puts Lecce ahead.

The Salento player intercepts the ball from Gila, combines with Krstovic and, after getting past Guendouzi, slides in to beat Mandas.

Lecce are down to ten men: foul by Pierotti on Tavares, Fabbri shows a second yellow and the Salento side are reduced to ten.

💥 Lucca makes it 12: Udinese ahead, but Bijol 🟥

Udinese go 1-0 up and for Fiorentina, the Conference League is now a tough task: great goal by Lorenzo Lucca, who reaches twelve in the league.

The Friulian club’s striker picks up a rebound won by Zemura and beats De Gea with a powerful right-footed shot.

However, Udinese’s match gets complicated a little later, with Bijol being sent off for a second yellow.

🌟 Yildiz SHOW, Kolo strikes: Juve turn it around, 2-1!

Juventus find the equalizer against Venezia at the Penzo thanks to Kenan Yildiz’s seventh league goal.

The young Turkish talent wakes Juve up in the 25th minute with a splendid solo move starting from a quickly taken throw-in on the left.

In the 31st minute, Venezia make another big mistake in possession: from a throw-in in their favor, they lose the ball and gift an opportunity to Kolo Muani, who takes advantage and completes the comeback!

The diagonal shot is powerful and beats Radu.

🔥 Paredes from the spot! Dembelé-Saele 💥 Roma overtake

Roma overtake Juventus, at least for now. Dembelé-Saelemaekers contact and a penalty for the Giallorossi.

The decision is confirmed by VAR.

Paredes steps up and beats Milinkovic-Savic, who guesses the corner but can’t keep the ball out.

💥 Fila with the KNEE, then goal ❌ Alberto Costa!

Juventus immediately fall behind at the Penzo: Venezia break the deadlock in less than 2 minutes.

Combination on the left between Ellertsson and Haps and a cross for Fila, who deceives Di Gregorio with his knee.

Juventus respond immediately: a shot from the edge of the area by Alberto Costa and goal.

But the referee disallows it after VAR intervention for a handball by the scorer: it remains 1-0 to Venezia.

🗣️ Giuntoli on Conte, Tudor and Club World Cup loans

Cristiano Giuntoli spoke to Sky Sport and DAZN microphones before Venezia-Juve:

“It’s important to qualify for the Champions League regardless. Conte? I’ll just congratulate Napoli, who had a great season. Coach? As said at the presentation, we’ll make our evaluations calmly at the end. Club World Cup? We’re thinking of bringing back both Kostic and Rugani, we’re talking to Ajax and Fenerbahce. We’re well advanced with Porto for Francisco, and we’re talking to Chelsea and PSG for Kolo Muani and Veiga.”

📋 The standings

4. Juventus 67 points

5. Roma 66 points

6. Lazio 65 points

7. Milan 63 points

8. Fiorentina 62 points

🔥 What happens in case of a tie on points?

Let’s imagine a possible scenario where Juventus and Roma finish the season with the same number of points. What happens in the event of a tie? The first tiebreaker is head-to-head, but that’s already even: 1-1 at the Olimpico and 1-1 at the Allianz Stadium. So, the second criterion is overall goal difference.

At the moment, Juventus have an advantage over Roma with +22 compared to the Giallorossi’s +19, which means that, in case of a tie on points, the Bianconeri would get the fourth Champions League spot.

And what if Lazio and Juventus finish level on points? If Lazio and Juventus finish level, with a Lazio win over Lecce and a Juventus draw in Venice, the Champions League spot would go to Igor Tudor’s team. The goal difference and the win in the first leg at the Bianconeri’s home would determine Lazio’s overtaking.
