Turned over to catch the end of that itv piece on the bother, they stopped folk getting in after a mob tore barriers down and were trying to snatch folks’ accreditation from round their necks.

Be good if Italy are four up at HT, there’s a riot and their golden generation are banned from competition for a decade 😄

Donnarumma has a look. Theres players you can look at and go hes got a fucking, for the ages, hero performance in him. He is one. Chiellini* and Bonucci are too, and Chiesa has already had some.

*Probably the finest example of this intangible quality.


Also, it just occurred to me that Marco Verratti is quite good at creating seethe, and would like to see him rile Kalvin Phillips up.

Seeing a lot of people on twitter blaming UEFA and saying that they should have moved the kick off earlier to avoid this crap.  Weird that no other country has fans rioting before an 8 PM final (which is the established time for Euro and WC finals)....

Anybody who complains about coverage in the next hour and a half deserves all they get. Tune in in time for the Italian national anthem, nothing else.

That’s exactly what I’m doing. Netflix until 10 to 8 then the moment the Italians shout ‘Si!’ at the end of their anthem the tv is getting muted.

From the bbc sport build up:

Englishman in Italy here, I've been here 8 years now and my allegiance remains unaffected. I've boycotted pasta, binned the Birra Moretti and opened the Stella. Dreaded this final from the start. Forza Inghilterra!

A true patriot.

A shame Belgium didn't make it to the final

They should sing "Footballs comin to Rome, its comin to Rome, its comin to Rome, its coming, footballs comin to Rome" instead of the anthem to get the locals absolutely frothing at the mouth.

Fratelli d'Italia,
L'Italia s'è desta;
Dell'elmo di Scipio
S'è cinta la testa.
Dov'è la Vittoria?
Le porga la chioma;
Ché schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò.

Stringiamci a coorte!
Siam pronti alla morte.
Siam pronti alla morte,
L'Italia chiamò.
Stringiamci a coorte!
Siam pronti alla morte.
Siam pronti alla morte,
L'Italia chiamò. Sì!

Noi fummo da secoli
Calpesti, derisi,
Perché non siam popolo,
Perché siam divisi.
Raccolgaci un'unica
Bandiera, una speme;
Di fonderci insieme
Già l'ora suonò.

Uniamoci, amiamoci;
L'unione e l'amore
Rivelano ai popoli
Le vie del Signore.
Giuriamo far libero
Il suolo natio:
Uniti, per Dio,
Chi vincer ci può?

Dall'Alpi a Sicilia,
Dovunque è Legnano;
Ogn'uom di Ferruccio
Ha il core e la mano;
I bimbi d'Italia
Si chiaman Balilla;
Il suon d'ogni squilla
I Vespri suonò.

Son giunchi che piegano
Le spade vendute;
Già l'Aquila d'Austria
Le penne ha perdute.
Il sangue d'Italia
E il sangue Polacco
Bevé, col Cosacco,
Ma il cor le bruciò.
