Juventus coach Allegri angry after Parma fight-back: Hoof it!

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri was unimpressed by their 3-3 draw with Parma.

Leonardo Spinazzola was given his first Serie A start in a Bianconeri jersey, while Martin Caceres was thrown straight into central defence just days after his transfer from Lazio.

Allegri said, “It was the first time this back four had played together and we didn't help the centre-backs, always leaving them in one-on-one situations. They need to realise there is no shame in hoofing the ball into the stands if needs be.

“At least we gave those who complained we weren't entertaining enough something to enjoy. Beautiful football doesn't pay off, at the end of the day you've got to just kick it away from your goal."
