Defender of Juventus and Helmari Tuija Hyyrynen is accustomed to the championship in his Italian years. The championship, which was confirmed in Turin on Saturday, was already the fifth consecutive one for the club and Hyyryläinen.

Juventus ’women’s team was founded in 2017. It has won the championship every year ever since. Hyyrynen has been involved from the beginning. However, the championship humor has not become boring.

– You can probably never say that you get used to it, but this year it felt like it (the championship) was in our hands for so long that it belonged to us. Maybe it was more like defending than winning. But just as great and now we get an award for all the hard work we have done over the years, Hyyrynen described the mood for Urheil after the decisive match.

The people of Turin are planning to celebrate the championship at the training center by grilling.

– Then let’s see where the evening goes.

Hyyrynen entered the game for Juventus as the match clock showed 68 minutes. The match ended with these readings.

– At that point, we had the lead. It just had to be kept. I got along well with the game. It was amazing when the final whistle came and it was known that Scudetto belongs to us again.

Juventus is second to Rome in the series out of reach, with a difference of five points when one round is unplayed.

Playing time decreased from previous years

Hyyrynen, 34, is not completely satisfied with his own season. A new coach Joe Montemurron under responsibility did not detach as much as in previous periods.

– I have been allowed to play, but I did not get much responsibility for important games. There was little left in the cavity, of course. We’ve had a lot of games this year, it feels like there were two games every week. Yes, everyone has been able to play almost as much as they can. Even though I’m sitting on the bench, the games have still come awfully.

A different role has made it possible to support teammates more than before. According to Hyyrynen, it doesn’t matter who is on the field because the champion team is so united.

– We are all in the mood every time.

Hyyrynen’s plans for the future are still open. He has not wondered whether he intends to continue in Turin or move elsewhere. Thoughts have been firmly on the club team season and the Helmari’s upcoming rehearsals.

– I’m still open. I’m focused on this season and the European Championships are in mind of course. I haven’t thought about that yet. I have not made any decisions.

– Both options would be good. Indeed, five years after I was already in Juventus, some new challenge could taste. To be seen. Keep here for a while to start making some kind of decisions. But today I’m just thinking about partying and having fun with the team.

New goals coming soon

Hyyrynen, who has recovered from minor back problems, does not intend to rest after the Serie A championship, or Scudetto. Juventus will face AS Roman in a couple of weeks in the Italian Cup final. The team is chasing a historic triple. It already has the Italian supercup and Serie An championships in its pocket.

– We have not won the triple yet and that is our goal. We invest in everything.

Juventus was also involved in the Champions League, from which he dropped out after losing in the semi-finals to Olympique Lyonnais with 4-3 goals overall.

After the club team season, it is the turn of the national team summer. Helmarit plays in the European Football Championship in England.

– I’m already looking forward to it. As the races approach, they think more and more. I hope that a lot of Finns will come to the place to get the atmosphere there. We will do everything with the Helmars there.
