1977–78 Juventus FC season

In the 1977-78 season Juventus competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup.

Summary
After winning last season's league title with a record-breaking tally of 51 points, the club did not make substantial changes in their first line-up and brought young promises  such as Pietro Paolo Virdis, Pierino Fanna and Vinicio Verza to their debut at top level.

The team was defeated in Rome 0-3 by Lazio, which was their only loss in the first half of the season. Liedholm and his Milan were Juventus' biggest challengers of the season and finished the first half of the league season at the top. However, with a draw at Bergamo, they were reached in first place by Juventus; the next week the Bianconeri took the leadership, grabbing the 'Winter title' with 2 points ahead of local rivals Torino.

The second half of the tournament for Juventus was calm with the Bianconeri not losing a single game for the rest of the tournament. Juventus secured the championship after drawing away to Roma with game to spare.

In Coppa Italia, the team suffered a shocking elimination in Second round. In European Cup, the squad reached the Semi-finals, being surprisingly eliminated by Belgian Club Brugge its coach over the two legs.

After the team clinched the title, Italian national team manager Enzo Bearzot called up eight players as regulars starters from this Juventus squad — Zoff, Gentile, Scirea, Benetti, Tardelli, Bettega, Cabrini and Causio — during the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina (also Cuccureddu was called), where they reached a decent 4th place. This group of players was known as Blocco-Juve (Juve Block), or Blocco Juventus
