Chiellini, who has represented Juventus for many seasons, played his last home game for the club, but one significant thing that occurred was when he was substituted just 17 minutes into the match.

The former Italian defender went on to make 560 appearances for Juventus, scoring 36 goals and providing 25 assists. He also won the Italian league 9 times, the Supercoppa 5 times, and the Coppa Italia 5 times. He also won the Euros last summer with Italy, before ending such a wonderful career.
Juventus went on to play out a 2-2 draw with Lazio after Vlahovic had opened the scoring and Morata made it 2-0, but an Alex Sandro own goal and a 96th minute strike by Milinkovic-Savic ensured the two teams shared the points.
