Claudio Marchisio taunts England, saying he is ready to sign the petition to replay the EURO 2020 Final ‘so Italy can win it another 1,000 times.’
There’s still a lot of hype around Italy’s EURO 2020 triumph that came after a hard-fought Final won against England on penalties at Wembley Stadium.
However, Italy’s win came with controversy and with some English fans who even asked to replay the Final because of a Giorgio Chiellini foul on Bukayo Saka.
The England international sprinted past Chiellini, who pulled his opponent to the ground tugging on his collar. The Juventus defender was shown a yellow card, which he accepted without protest.
Former Italy and Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio poured salt into England’s wounds with a tweet where he asked where he could sign the petition, but for all different reasons.
Chiellini, Saka and the English petition: too much mess for a tactical foul
“Where can I sign the petition to replay Italy v England?” he asked.
“So we can win it another 1,000 times.”
Marchisio retired from football in October 2019. He scored five goals in 55 appearances with the Azzurri.
