Melo admits bust-up with Juventus coach Ferrara

Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo admits coach Ciro Ferrara tore strips off him after their 1-1 draw at Bologna.

Juventus were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw after Melo lost the ball and allowed Adailton to score a 93rd minute equaliser for Bologna.

"We all made mistakes and all of us are angry. If we want to challenge for the Scudetto we cannot afford to leave points like these at the side of the road," Melo said.

Asked about Ferrara's reaction, Melo replied: "There isn't any drama. We told each other there are things that shouldn't happen, but the fact is they can happen. The important thing is not to repeat them."
