"Fiat Italy"
How Spalletti reacts to Swiss provocation
A shockingly poor performance saw them crash out of the European Championships without a trace, and then provoked with a Fiat question at the press conference: Italy team boss Luciano Spalletti has probably experienced better days in his career ...
"Excuse the metaphor, but could it be that Italy was a Fiat Panda today and Switzerland was a Ferrari?" asked a Swiss reporter at the press conference following the Swiss team's 2-0 win over the dethroned defending champions.
"Tasteless innuendo"
After there were problems with the translation and Spalletti did not know what was being asked for some time, the frustrated team boss finally reacted with biting derision. After a defeat like this, you also have to accept "tasteless insinuations like yours", said the coach to the reporter. "You must be a person with great irony and great quality," Spalletti scoffed. "I guess you're right".
Afterwards, the Italy team boss even wanted to know the name of the reporter and his employer, mockingly showing a raised thumb and laughing almost devilishly.
