Juventus boss Luciano Spalletti decided to respond to a fan who was jeering the team during the 2-1 victory over Cagliari.
The 66-year-old may have endeared himself to the fanbase, especially following his friendly gestures towards the supporters at the airport in Norway following the Champions League victory over Bodo/Glimt.
On Saturday, the Bianconeri finished off a good week by rallying from behind to beat their Sardinian visitors at the Allianz Stadium.
While they managed to collect three important points, Juve’s display wasn’t entirely convincing, especially in the early going.
The team was operating on a rather slow tempo, with the fans growing increasingly frustrated.
At one point, the manager heard a fan behind him hurling abuse at his players. “You suck,” said the supporter in reference to Juve’s uninspiring display.
While Spalletti could have let it slide, he decided to confront the fan, asking him: “But what do you want?!”, before swiftly resuming his duties on the sidelines. The episode went viral on social media.
