Juventus defender Jonathan Zebina has lashed out at the club's supporters after the Italian giants fell further into crisis with a humiliating Europa League exit at Fulham.
Leading 3-1 from the first leg, Juve were expected to ease comfortably through to the quarter-finals but they were defeated 4-1 in an astonishing night at Craven Cottage which saw Fabio Cannavaro sent off in the 27th minute.
Zebina was also dismissed in stoppage time and as the French right-back walked off the pitch he put his middle finger up at the travelling fans. The 31-year-old apologised for that gesture but has urged the fans to back their team.
Relations between the club and its fans are at an all-time low following a dismal season.
Coach Ciro Ferrara was sacked in January but his replacement Alberto Zaccheroni has changed little and Juve are fifth in the Serie A table and, following the latestt humiliation, out of all cup competitions.
