Sub Lukaku  earned his costly second yellow card for “excessive celebration” after the loan striker from Chelsea cranked up the hostile atmosphere with a silencing gesture to the home crowd.
Yet Juventus  coach Massimiliano Allegri claimed after the triple-red finale: “It’s nothing, just a bit of chaos at the end of a balanced game
“We knew it would be difficult. Although they were coming off a difficult period, they are still Inter  and proved it tonight.”
But the controversial ending underlined the pressure being felt at Inter, especially by boss Simone Inzaghi.
