Vlahovic's Displeasure at Being Substituted in Juventus-Milan Match

Dusan Vlahovic did not take his substitution well at all. The Serbian center-forward left the field in the 62nd minute of Juventus-Milan, making way for Milik but did not gracefully accept Massimiliano Allegri's decision. Not a brilliant performance from the class of 2000 former Fiorentina player who, at the time of the substitution, gave his coach an unloving look and then also forcefully pushed away a water bottle. An episode that is not new at Juve. Previously, Federico Chiesa had also had such reactions, having been almost always the first player to leave the field at the time of substitutions. Vlahovic's reaction is a reflection of Juventus's season which could be less bitter only with the victory of the Coppa Italia. Allegri explained, 'I needed fresh people upfront, I put Milik who was in good shape. It's not that the first 11 always have to finish the game, Vlahovic has played many games and I wanted fresher players as the game went on' Allegri explained in the post-match regarding the question about the substitution of the Serbian.
