Juventus of Turin is synonymous of thirst and hunger for glory, and the team showed it in this season's closing, after conquering its seventh consecutive crown in Serie A of Italy. This championship has simply been small for the high level the team has built.

It is said easy, but not any team wins seven consecutive tournaments and with as much solidity as the Bianconero team has managed to do. The squad led by Gian Luigi Buffon, has crushed its staunchest rivals, which have not been able to nick since 2011.

Then, it is worth asking what are the reasons for the success of Juve? There are reasons that come together for a team to get these wins, because although it is true that any good team can win two or three consecutive tournaments, get seven scudettos is something that exceeds all kinds of parameters.

  1. Hungry for victory

At the time of the films of Rocky Balboa, it drew attention the mythical fighter, played by Sylvester Stallone, for the hunger to always wanting to win. This characteristic, within the saga of fiction, was known as "the eye of a tiger". Today, this virtue is transferred to reality with the Juventina squad, which year after year, always keeps the goal of winning at any cost.

  1. Mediocre rivals

For years, Italian football has been in crisis and this situation has favored the vecchia signora. The fact that clubs like Inter, Milan, Lazio, and Roma no longer have such well-meshed and weight-bearing teams has made Juventus more likely to win.

Maybe Napoli is the only team that has managed to be competitive in the last editions of Serie A. However, it is enough to see the templates they have put together, as well as observe their poor performance at European level, to identify that they have never been able to be a true rival of weight for Juve.

  1. Two great technicians

For a few years now, the bianconero's board has had the task of having two very important technicians, such as Antonio Conte (2011-2014) and Massimiliano Alegri (2014-present), who knew how to assume the commitment to lead the Juventus. Each one, with his own style, personality and players, have been able to give sovereign triumphs to an already lauded institution.

  1. Unconditional support

Many say that perhaps Juve's outstanding debt, in recent times, is not being able to win the UEFA Champions League. However, for its fans, managers and journalists who accompany it, the important thing is to be competitive campaign after campaign. Certainly, the team reached two finals in the last three seasons, and although it lost both, first in 2015 against Barcelona and then in 2017 against Madrid, the important thing is that it has been able to battle internationally. Reaching these instances is something that your people always appreciate, because the team continues to make them happy.
