Iconic football boss threatens to 'slap' rival after he 'just wanted a hug' in wild brawl

Iconic football manager Luciano Spalletti was involved in dramatic post-match touchline chaos on Sunday night after the Juventus boss reportedly threatened to slap Cagliari head coach Fabio Pisacane following an angry 1-1 draw in Sardinia. Both managers were shown straight red cards by referee Matteo Marcenaro as tempers boiled over immediately following the final whistle at the Unipol Domus, leaving the pair facing one-match touchline suspensions. Juventus had endured a deeply frustrating evening after falling behind to a 20th-minute strike from Daniel Maldini.
