Three of the most beautiful Italian women in Europe, but let’s not delude ourselves

Let’s not delude ourselves. After five years we will have at least one Italian in the semifinals of the Champions League, maybe even two, but our football is still not good. The optical illusion of a beautiful Naples and the two Milanese climbers among the magnificent eight of Europe must not deceive. No one, not even the very rich Premier League has brought so many teams here, only City and Chelsea are left. It hasn’t happened to us since 2006, when in addition to Milan and Inter there was Juve instead of Napoli. That time Barcelona won after beating Milan in the semifinals, while the other two had stopped immediately. Calciopoli had broken out a few days before, a few months later we became World Champions. This time we are European Champions, but we have just watched the World Cup on television. There is still an ongoing scandal involving the same team at the time, this time without all those who kept them company by mistakenly leading to awarding Inter the most wrong Scudetto in Italian history. No, we’re still not well, even if a Martian who fell on the Champions League could compliment us and get ready to enjoy Napoli-Milan as if it were City-Bayern.
