Juventus coach Max Allegri admits Paul Pogba angered him by speaking back at the end of victory over Atalanta.

Allegri criticised Pogba late on as Juve were attempting to play out the game and protect their lead.

Afterwards the coach explained their heated exchange.

“Pogba doesn't have to lose those balls. (Dusan) Vlahovic did very well when he entered," said Allegri.

"Paul said, 'Mister calm' but there is little to stay calm about: those balls must be kept."
