Juventus’s Allegri wins best Serie A coach for 2016-17 season
Rome, March 26 (IANS) Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri on Monday won the Golden Bench trophy for best Serie A coach in the 2016-17 season, awarded by the Italian football federation for his role in leading his team to its sixth straight Serie A title.
Allegri received 19 votes, eight more than Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini and 12 more than Napoli’s Maurizio Sarri, reports Efe.
“I would like to thank you all and wish you a good finale to the season — a little bit less for Sarri,” Allegri said, joking with the coach of Juve’s closest rival in the Italian league.
Juventus tops the Serie A table with 75 points, two points ahead of Napoli.
After the international break, Juventus is scheduled to face off against Milan, while Napoli is set to play Sassuolo.
During the event, Italian coaches Carlo Ancelotti, Antonio Conte, Roberto Bordin, Massimo Carrera and Marco Rossi received the Special Golden Bench award for their role in coaching teams outside Italy.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
