Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic comforted his ex Fiorentina teammate Lorenzo Venuti who had scored a last-gasp own goal in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-finals at the Artemio Franchi.

It was the day of Vlahovic’s return to Florence, barely a month after moving to Turin. The 22-year-old was booed for the entire match by his ex fans. Juventus struggled to find the way through. Vlahovic didn’t have a single shot on target, but the Bianconeri emerged as winners thanks to a late own goal of Venuti.

The Italy full-back broke into tears as soon as the ball crossed the line at minute 91 and Vlahovic comforted him after the final whistle. Nevertheless, Fiorentina fans continued to insult him after the match and called him ‘gipsy’ while he was on his way to the tunnel.
