Massimiliano Allegri's hopes of remaining in a job are hanging by a thread after Juventus lost 2-1 at home to Benfica.

After his late header against Salernitana was controversially and wrongly disallowed at the weekend, Arkadiusz Milik's fourth-minute header did stand here to break the deadlock.

From there on in, Benfica had the better of the first half. Rafa Silva rattled Mattia Perin's post before they were awarded a penalty by VAR after Goncalo Ramos was tripped by Fabio Miretti.

Former West Ham midfielder Joao Mario stepped up and converted to deservedly bring Benfica level on the verge of half time.

Benfica took a deserved lead when Rafa's initial effort was palmed away by Perin, only for David Neres to arrive on the scene and secure all three points for the visitors.

Juventus remain without a point in Group H and have an uphill task to reach the knockout stages now.
