Genoa sack coach Juric, appoint Mandorlini

(Reuters) - Genoa have sacked coach Ivan Juric after a 5-0 away defeat on Sunday to last-placed Pescara and replaced him with Andrea Mandorlini, the Serie A club said on its website. Around 200 supporters blocked the team bus after Sunday's game, throwing eggs, shouting insults and spitting and kicking, news agency ANSA said. Mandorlini, a former Inter Milan defender, has previously coached Atalanta, Sassuolo, and Hellas Verona. He has signed a contract until June 2018. Genoa, 16th in the standings, host Bologna, one place and one point ahead of them, on Sunday. (Reporting by Silvia Recchimuzzi in Gdynia; Editing by Mark Trevelyan)
