He was immediately shown a red card by referee Fabio Maresca, but refused to calm down.

The 56-year-old then ripped off his jacket before throwing it down in a fit of rage.

As he started walking off the pitch he did the same with his tie.

And just as he was about to storm down the tunnel, Allegri began unbuttoning his shirt.

Commentators on Premier Sports were left stunned, with one person joking: "You can see the usual strip tease by Allegri."

Meanwhile the other quipped: "If Allegri keeps going, he won't end up with any items of clothing left."

Juventus held on to win the match thanks to Dusan Vlahovic's fourth-minute strike.

Speaking in his press conference after full-time, Allegri said: "I can only thank the players because they gifted the club and me a nice victory."

He continued: "I am pretty lucky because I’ve been part of big clubs. I am still part of a big club so I am very happy.

"Tonight, we must celebrate because we were not favourites. We must congratulate Atalanta for how they played.

"Above all, I want to wish them good luck for the Europa League Final. For the rest.

"Juventus means winning and tonight we did it."

He also insisted that his furious outburst in added time was "normal" at the end of an important match.

Allegri hinted that he could be sacked by Juventus this summer after failing to compete for the Serie A title.

The Italian said: "If I am no longer the coach of Juventus next season, seeing as everyone seems to take it for granted that I am leaving, then I leave a strong team for this club.

"I don’t know anything yet, I am just joking. At Juventus, winning is all that matters, then the club will make their evaluations."
