Capello shocked by jeering Juventus junior fans

Former Juventus coach Fabio Capello slammed the club's young fans for their behaviour during victory over Udinese.

Over 12,000 children replaced banned ultras at Juventus Stadium, all under 13. But they still jeered opponents Udinese and hurled insults at Zeljko Brkic every time he took a goal kick.

Capello said: "I'd ask myself a few questions after what happened at the Juventus Stadium. If even children start insulting the opposition team, then it means there are serious problems of ethics and sporting attitude in this country.

"If I had been there, I would've told the announcer to intervene and make them stop those chants."
