TURIN, Italy — Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has been fined $11,000 for disrespecting the referee and his assistants in their locker room after the Italian league match at Genoa. Allegri was given the fine by Italy's sports judge. The 56-year-old Allegri was made at refereeing decisions during Juventus' 1-1 draw at Genoa on Friday and went to the officials' dressing room to protest "at first with a calm tone" and then "in a disrespectful way." The judge's statement says the incident only ended when the referee asked Allegri to leave. Juventus is second in Serie A.
