Actually, I'm glad Italy won.
First, it's a modern Republic, not a medieval system. Then, I confess I much prefer pasta than beans on toast.
And at least Bojo can't use it for his hocus-pocus stance about the UK, sorry, "England" being on top of the world. I've seen all the racist abuse about the "coloured" players that missed a goal. Typical, unfortunately, so British.
And frankly, what's the use of sweating for two hours and winning or losing in a few minutes ? Why don't they just shoot penalties right from the start ? How many games were won this way ?
Oh, it's because the fans need time to reach climax ? Have enough time to fuel up and chant their racist slurs ? And insult those who were made gods a week before ? What a disgrace. France also lost because one of the players didn't score. Killian Mbapé never was insulted like the "black" players were in their country.
I think it tells a lot about the "post-brexit" England - I don't want to call it Britain for the majority of the Scots, and many Irish people in your northern colony are not like you.
I much prefer rugby, that's sport. Rough at times, but fair-play, which is something the Brits seem to have lost for long, whether in sports or politics, in England or their "colonies".
