The 2004–05 season was a crucial year for Juventus, as the club had a strong campaign in Serie A, the Coppa Italia, and European competitions. Under the guidance of manager Fabio Capello, Juventus won the league title for the 28th time in this season; the following year, Juventus were stripped of this title and sent to Serie B due to the Calciopoli scandal. The team was known for its solid defense and tactical discipline, hallmarks of Capello’s managerial style.
In the UEFA Champions League, Juventus had a solid run but were eliminated in the quarter-finals by Liverpool in a dramatic series that ended 2–1 on aggregate in favor of the English side. Juventus had a good performance in the group stages, but the defeat in the knockout rounds was a disappointment.
In the Coppa Italia, Juventus were eliminated by Atalanta in the Round of 16.
