Max Allegri given police escort after Monza loss

Reports in Italy claim that Allegri needed a police escort to escape the wrath of angry Juve supporters.

A video by TV Dello Sport appeared to show the Italian manager being led to his car by the cops who surrounded him as he walked through the gates towards the car park.

Allegri enjoyed a good reputation at the Allianz Stadium and is currently on his second stint at the Allianz Stadium, with his first coming between 2015 and 2019, when he won them five straight Serie A titles.

However, his second spell with Juve has not gone according to plan, leaving him under immense pressure from fans.

Controversial VAR decisions during Juventus vs Salernitana

Sports Brief earlier reported on the crazy Juventus game, which ended dramatically.

The league witnessed a controversial ending to the match punctuated with a mass brawl after Milik's goal was wrongly ruled out for offside.

The goal was ruled out because they thought defender Leonardo Bonucci was involved in active play while in an offside position.

Those decisions caused mayhem which saw three players and Massimiliano Allegri sent off.
