« The National », a Scottish independentist daily, hopes for an Italian victory in the final of the Euro
The message is clear : “Save us Roberto, you are our last hope. « By thus posting this Saturday in one the Italian coach Roberto Mancini taking again the paintings and the outfit of the Scottish independence leader William Wallace (1270-1305) in the film Braveheart by Mel Gibson, The National would like to see Italy triumph in the Euro final against England (Sunday, 9 p.m.). Or rather avoid at all costs a victory of the Three Lions. « We cannot bear another 55 years of them beating our ears with this », adds in the tone of humor the Scottish independentist media.
