Max Allegri could not hide his fury at the officials in the Coppa Italia Final.
Juventus beat Atalanta to win the trophy, but Allegri had already been sent off.
The Juve boss completely lost his head, and bizarrely his jacket, tie and nearly his shirt.
With his side 1-0 up, thanks to a Dusan Vlahovic goal, Allegri was incensed at his team not being awarded a foul by referee Fabio Maresca.
He tore off his jacket and started screaming at the fourth official in the face, which commentators jokingly wondered if he was about to perform a striptease.
Unsurprisingly, he was shown a red card and then started sarcastically applauding Maresca.
Allegri then started removing more of his clothing as his tie was taken off and then he started unbuttoning his shirt.
He was also heard screaming ‘shame on you’ as he walked off.
Juve held on at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome to claim the Coppa Italia.
Allegri was far more relaxed when speaking to the assembled media after the match.
He said: “I am pretty lucky because I’ve been part of big clubs. I am still part of a big club so I am very happy. Tonight, we must celebrate because we were not favourites.
“We must congratulate Atalanta for how they played. Above all, I want to wish them good luck for the Europa League Final. For the rest. Juventus means winning and tonight we did it.”
Gian Piero Gasperini’s men face Xabi Alonso’s unstoppable Bayer Leverkusen who are yet to lose this season.
They have already won the league and German Cup and are on the verge of an unprecedented treble.
