They say that a victory is the best medicine in football. But after Juve’s dismal September, the team may have to rack up several wins to genuinely reconcile with their disappointed fan base.
On Sunday, Max Allegri’s men picked up three points at the expense of Thiago Motta’s Bologna. Filip Kostic, Dusan Vlahovic and Arek Milik hit home in what turned out to be a one-sided affair.
But according to Calciomercato, the atmosphere at the half-empty Allianz Stadium was tense from start to finish.
It all started before the match, when a group of 50 Ultras made themselves felt at the J-Hotel where the squad met.
The players also received an unpleasant welcome when their bus arrived at the Stadium.
Before kick-off, the source claims there were anti-hierarchy chants inside the stadium, with other chants in support of Vice President Pavel Nedved.
When the lineup was announced before the match, a section of the crowd booed Allegri’s name. The same for the club captain, Leonardo Bonucci.
Ultimately, the players skipped the usual post-match celebration in front of the Curva Sud, prompting more whistles and jeers from the Ultras as the Bianconeri stars walked off the pitch.
