JUVENTUS stars bore the brunt of a furious rant from Massimiliano Allegri following a fourth consecutive league game without a win.

AC Milan held the Old Lady to a 1-1 draw on Sunday to leave Allegri's side 18th in the Serie A table.

Alvaro Morata put Juve ahead early on but Milan fought back to claim a point late on, through Ante Rebic's header.

The draw left the 36-time Italian champions with their worst start after four games since 1961.

The Italian media have shown no mercy.

Sports newspaper Corriere dello Sport says they have hit ‘rock bottom’ while Turin daily sports paper Tuttosport dubbed Juve as the ‘crisis’ club.

It comes after the club sold icon Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United.

And it also meant Allegri's second spell in Turin has started with far greater difficulty than his first, when he won the league title in each of his five seasons in charge.

The 54-year-old was filmed by one fan storming down the Allianz Stadium tunnel at the final whistle in a clip that has since gone viral.

Allegri is said to have shouted 'F***'s sake, you are playing for Juventus!' as he departed the dugout.

Speaking to the media post-game, the coach stated: "Despite a good first-half, when we created chances and allowed Milan just one opportunity, we even risked defeat at the end of a game that had been under total control.

"Unfortunately, we lost that concentration, determination and focus. Just look at the corner where we conceded the goal, there was complacency.

"It’s not possible to give this game away after being in control. Evidently, we need to make more progress. A lot more."

With just two points from four games, Juventus face Spezia on Wednesday with a Champions League match against Chelsea on the horizon.

Juventus have gone 18 consecutive games without a clean sheet, making them one of the worst defences across Europe's five top leagues.

They have managed just four goals so far this season, fewer than Ronaldo has for Man Utd since leaving.
