England beat Switzerland 2-1 in the early morning warm-up match. This game has nothing to do with Italy. But in the stands, the Swiss fans played a banner, madly mocking Italy’s exit.
Switzerland and Italy were in the same group in the World Qualifiers group stage. Switzerland beat Italy for the top spot in the group. Italy had to go to the play-offs and was beaten by North Macedonia in 92 minutes in the first round of play-offs. After Italy missed the World Cup, Swiss fans taunted the Azzurri. On the banner, the page for Google search is printed. Searching for the keywords “Italy” and “2022 Qatar World Cup”, the correct result is “Switzerland”.
After the European Cup, Italy fell into a predicament of powerlessness. After Chiesa was seriously injured, Italy lost the most threatening blaster on the front line. Immobile, the former European Golden Boot winner, has never played an outstanding performance in the national team competition. He, who has been criticized many times before, is now being criticized overwhelmingly after being out of the game. Italy’s “Repubblica” pointed out that Immobile could no longer bear this, and he was considering quitting the Italian team completely.
The core midfielder Verratti also called on fans to exercise restraint and calm: “I don’t think you should try your best to insult everyone after a defeat, this is not the best solution to the problem. Because although the final outcome is not ideal, we Everyone has done their best. Especially don’t target the young people, if you still can’t keep your mouth shut and still want to say something, then come to us old players, let the young people go. Sometimes everyone It will be forgotten that our players are actually ordinary people, and our mentality can also be affected by small things.”
