Benevento`s participation in the Serie C playoffs came to a swift end after suffering a heavy defeat in the first round against Juventus Next Gen. The team, led by manager Auteri, was eliminated from the competition, having conceded five goals to Juventus`s young squad.
Following the match, reports indicate that the club enforced a media silence. No players or staff spoke publicly after the final whistle, a reflection of the deep shock caused by the unexpected and decisive result.
