Kuipers will whistle: at 48, chosen for the final
the case
Chatter. And little else. “Wembley? No fear. The referee? Let’s just think about playing: no alibi, please ». Leonardo Bonucci covers his eyes and ears: Italy and the final to win will be a matter of goals scored and not conceded. Thus, everything else has to stay out of the locker room and out of the head.
Bjorn Kuipers is an expert, a lot.
