Parma condemn own fans over Pessotto banner

Parma have condemned their supporters over an insulting banner aimed at Juventus.

In Saturday's 1-0 victory for the Bianconeri, someone in the Stadio Tardini crowd displayed a banner referencing Gianluca Pessotto's suicide attempt.

"Parma FC distance themselves from what happened at the Tardini against Juve and the display of a shameful banner against Gianluca Pessotto.

"We renew all our respect for the Vice-Director of the Bianconeri Youth Academy, hoping a similar incident is never repeated."
