Juventus promise to BAN supporters who are found guilty of vile racist abuse directed at Romelu Lukaku after he scored a late equaliser for Inter Milan ... as Italian giants insist they will 'collaborate with the police to identify those responsible'

Juventus have pledged to ban fans who are found guilty of directing vile racist abuse at Romelu Lukaku after he scored in Tuesday night's Coppa Italia semi-final with Juventus.

The Belgian striker was subjected to monkey chants from a section of Juventus supporters behind the goal after he converted a penalty in the fifth minute of stoppage time to salvage a 1-1 draw.

Video footage showed Juventus fans chanting 'f***ing monkey' and 'f*** off' at Lukaku, who was shown a second yellow card and sent off for shushing them during his celebrations - with the referee deciding this was provocative.
