Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz ignored Juventus fans after loss to Benfica | OneFootball

Most Juventus players faced furious fans after a 2-0 loss against Benfica on Wednesday, but Dusan Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz didn’t join their teammates and walked straight into the tunnel.

Juventus’ home defeat against Benfica last night infuriated the Allianz Stadium crowd as fans booed the Bianconeri during the half-time break and after the final whistle.

Most Juventus players faced angry supporters at the end of the game, receiving even more boos but, as reported by Gazzetta, the group did not include Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz.

In fact, both players made their way into the tunnel after the final whistle and didn’t wave at the fans.

Vlahovic already clashed with a group of Juventus ultras this season when he responded to insults and shameful death threats after a 2-2 draw against Venezia on December 14.

Juventus’ next match is at Empoli on Sunday, February 2.

Thiago Motta took responsibility for last night’s defeat and urged the team to “improve quickly” ahead of the next match.

Juventus will know their opponents in the Champions League knockout playoff on Friday.
