Juventus” data-scaytid=”21″>Juventus midfielder Pogba complained during the match, which the Bianconeri won 2-0, that Meggiorini had aimed a racist epithet at him.

“There was an insult, but it was a perfectly ‘normal’ one, the kind you get in football,” insisted Meggiorini.

“Pogba shouldn’t start crying and moaning if someone says something to him. I get insulted too, but I don’t complain, because in football certain things are normal.
