Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has had his one-match ban lifted after successfully appealing the decision.

The Juventus coach received the single game ban for allegedly stepping out of his designated coach’s box and insulting a match official during the Bianconeri’s recent  1-1 draw with Sampdoria.

As a result, Allegri is now allowed to attend Juventus’ next match as they travel to the Stadio Sant’Elia to face Cagliari on Thursday, however, he must pay a fine of €10,000 for his actions.

While Allegri managed to appeal his ban, Leonardo Bonucci, was not as lucky. The defender will miss the last match of the calendar year due to an automatic one-match banned, based on yellow card accumulation.
