Seriously:

La Gazzetta dello Sport, the country’s main sports newspaper, took a different tack and in a long article – later removed from its website without explanation – raised the unsubstantiated suspicion that Uefa is backing England for the final to please Boris Johnson after his opposition to the Super League project. It suggested, in claims reported on by others in the Italian press, that the penalty awarded to England against Denmark before their winning goal was a sign of Uefa’s support.

“Too bad,” it added. “Because England’s national team doesn’t need any help.”


Just because their country engages in match fixing all the time doesn't mean the rest of us do.
