Pre-Season Tour Starts
As planned, the Juventus team, including the players, coaches, and technical staff, boarded a chartered plane the following morning and set off on their journey to Jakarta, Indonesia, to kick-start their pre-season tour of Asia and Australia. Their flight was without mishaps, and they arrived in the Indonesian capital fifteen and a half hours later, just past midnight.
After greeting their Indonesian fans, who had eagerly been waiting for them at the airport gates even that late in the night, they took a bus to the Ritz-Carlton Jakarta Hotel. They checked into the hotel forty minutes later and had a late dinner together as a team before heading to their rooms to rest for the night.
