Polish commentators mocked Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri yesterday after seeing Dusan Vlahovic replaced by Giorgio Chiellini.
The Bianconeri secured a 2-1 win against struggling Venezia thanks to a brace of Leonardo Bonucci at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday.
The victory was enough to snatch a top-four finish, given that Roma picked up a 0-0 stalemate against Bologna later in the evening.
However, It wasn’t a performance to remember for the Serie A giants, who ended the game with less ball possession than their rivals. Not everyone was impressed with Juventus’ win, from fans to pundits.
Massimiliano Allegri’s defensive tactics attracted criticism and the coach was also mocked by Eleven Sports’ commentators in Poland, who laughed when seeing Dusan Vlahovic replaced by Giorgio Chiellini.
Repubblica and La Stampa report that the commentators had predicted that Allegri would make a defensive move in the final minutes. Vlahovic was replaced at minute 79.
“We apologise to viewers, but we were joking, we were ironic, Mr Massimiliano,” they said while the former Fiorentina star was leaving the pitch.
