Per usual practice, the Juventus players took a day off after winning the game against Cagliari. They spent their entire hours on Sunday resting before returning to the training ground on Monday morning.
The football season was in its late stages, and most coaches of top teams were already doing their best to reduce the intensity of the training schedules. They were trying not to burn out the energy of their players when there were still crucial tournaments, like the Champions League and their respective leagues, at stake.
Coach Allegri obviously had such considerations while designing the training for his players over the following two days. On Monday, he took them through only one hour of intensive training and discussed game tactics with them for another hour before sending them to rest for the day. He repeated the same routine on Tuesday, save for the fact that he didn't send the players back home in the afternoon.
