Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has expressed his opinion on the scandalous episode at the end of the Euro 2024 qualifying match between Ukraine and Italy.
"Nobody wants to see a team robbed the way Ukraine was robbed by Italy. The Ukrainians definitely should have got a penalty. The Italians played well, better than most times I've watched. They deserved to qualify. Ukraine was motivated by the war, they had a dream, but it didn't materialise. Again, if things had been easy, it wouldn't have been a dream," De Laurentiis said in comments to Football Italia.
