The Scottish newspaper “National” gathered in one cover the torments of the entire nation of five million before the final of Euro 2020.
And if you think that someone north of the English-Scottish border will see the “three lions” on Sunday, then you are living in deep delusion. The hatred of the football field between the two British nations is proverbial.
“Save us, Roberto! You are our last hope! We can’t wait another 55 years to hear them brag if they win!” writes on the cover of the publication.
The photo on the whole first page is a collage – the Italian coach Roberto Mancini is placed in the skin of William Wallace, transformed on the screen by Mel Gibson in the famous “Braveheart”.
The English online media are having fun on the subject, but no one north of the border will have fun if Harry Kane and company become European champions on Sunday night.
