TURIN, Italy (AP) — Juventus fired coach Massimiliano Allegri on Friday for his ugly outburst toward the referees in the Italian Cup final.
The move comes with only two games remaining in Serie A.
Allegri lost his cool in stoppage time when he grew angry at a decision, ripped off his jacket and earned a red card for sarcastically applauding the referee. Juventus beat Atalanta 1-0 on Wednesday.
Juventus said in a statement that Allegri’s behavior was not in line with its "values.”
