Abstract

News that England had lost out to Italy 3-2 on penalties in the Euro championship final after finishing 1-1 after 90-odd minutes of regular playing time had left me feeling somewhat discordant. After all, as an Australian resident in the UK, I had no “skin in the game” of this particular game (and the ball is the wrong shape for me anyway…) and found that I actually wanted them to win.
