Juventus president Andrea Agnelli has played down his clash with Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte.
After being eliminated from the Coppa Italia, Conte flipped off Agnelli, who responded by telling the Inter coach to "f*** off".
“Every now and then the passion of our work makes us go over the line of good manners," Agnelli told comedy show Striscia La Notizia after receiving the Golden Tapir.
The show had also tried to present Conte with the same award, but he refused to meet with them.
Agnelli tried to laugh off the incident and assured his “collaboration with Conte ended well. Those were gestures of affection…"
