Juventus vs Roma: Old rivals Mourinho and Allegri meet in Serie A throwback

The Hindu  

Declared enemies from the very beginning, Jose Mourinho and Massimiliano Allegri have never shied away from antagonizing each other. Having moved on to jobs at AC Milan and then Juventus, Allegri at times criticized Mourinho as “pathetic” and “lacking respect,” while Mourinho reverted to loaded hand gestures aimed at the fans of Allegri’s Juventus teams — most recently during a Champions League clash with Mourinho’s Manchester United in 2018. READ: Now, with Mourinho back coaching in Italy after more than a decade and Allegri back in Turin after two seasons away, the rivalry resumes on Sunday when Mou’s Roma visits Max’s Juventus. After failing to win its four opening Serie A games then struggling to beat upstart Spezia, Juventus finally gained some confidence with a 1-0 win over European champion Chelsea in the Champions League last month with a throwback performance like those so often seen during Allegri’s first spell in Turin. They did.” Sunday’s game marks the first time Mourinho returns to Turin since 2018 and it’s also the first Serie A weekend in the pandemic when stadium capacities have been raised to 75%.
