For the last Massimiliano Allegri home game and Andrea Barzagli's football farewell, Juventus drew 1-1 on Sunday with Atalanta Bergamo, who will have to wait until the final day and end of a sprint at suspense to know if she will go to the Champions League.

. Juve bids farewell

"Proud man, victorious coach, five years of glory where you wrote the story Thank you Max Allegri". The tifosi of Juventus Turin paid Sunday a beautiful tribute to a coach who, if he has not always seduced them, brought them great success.

After five seasons, five scudetti and four Italian Cups, Allegri will leave Juventus at the end of the season and he has been warmly applauded by the Turin crowd for the last home game of the season.

But the most beautiful ovation went to Andrea Barzagli, "the teacher of the defenders", as Allegri calls it.

At 38, the central defender ends a great career, crowned by the world title in 2006 and marked by an avalanche of trophies with Juventus. Barzagli arrived in Turin in 2011 from Wolfsburg for ... 600,000 euros: the business of the century.

Under the gaze of Gianluigi Buffon, Barzagli came out in the 60th minute, in tears, before giving himself a long lap of honor while the match continued.

On the pitch, the Turinese were long shaken by Atalanta Bergamo, who opened the mark by Ilicic (33rd). But Allegri did not want to leave Turin on a defeat and he brought in all his attackers. And Mandzukic equalized (1-1, 80th).

. Suspense for the C1

The point taken by the Atalanta (3rd), coupled with the victory of AC Milan (5th) against Frosinone (2-0) and the collapse of Inter Milan (4th), corrected 4-1 by a Naples team (2nd) yet virtually on vacation for a long time, has left completely open the race to the Champions League.

While only one day remains, two tickets are still available, to be shared between Atalanta (3rd with 66 points), Inter (4th with 66 pts), Milan (5th with 65 pts) and even AS Roma (6th with 63 pts), however held in check Saturday in Sassuolo (0-0) but who keeps a tiny chance.

Atalanta are in the best position and will certainly play the C1 for the first time in their history against Sassuolo, who has nothing to lose or win.

With a win, Inter would also qualify. But the Milanese will have to recover from their Neapolitan slap and will face Empoli who, thanks to three victories in a row, has left the relegation zone (17th) and will want to take points to save themselves.

In case of a misstep by Inter or Atalanta, AC Milan is ready to jump. And with a trip to Ferrara on the ground of the Spal, already saved, Gennaro Gattuso and his family have a game at their fingertips.

Roma, for its part, needs a very improbable contest circumstance, but it is not yet absolutely out of race, provided to beat Parma.

. Europa League and undecided support

The defeat of the Torino (7th) at Empoli (4-1) guarantees at least the Romans to play the Europa League, without knowing whether it will be directly in pools or preliminary round.

Lazio Roma (8th) will play the C3 pools thanks to his victory in the Italian Cup.

Bottom of the table, with the victory of Empoli, it is the Genoa, held in check Saturday by Cagliari (1-1), who finds himself 18th and under pressure before the last day next week-end. But Fiorentina, Udinese and Bologna are also not mathematically saved.
