U.K. Parliament Discusses Petition Calling for Euro 2020 Final To Be Repeated?


 

It's still about the Euro 2020 final Italy vs England, which also spawned a petition calling for the top party to be repeated. It is possible that this petition was discussed by the British Parliament.

England were defeated by Italy in the Euro 2020 final, when the two faced off at Wembley Stadium, home of the Three Lions squad.

England started with a promising quick goal from Luke Shaw. But Italy then responded in the second half through Leonardo Bonucci's goal. The penalty shootout then became the climax of the Euro 2020 final Italy vs England.

In the penalty shootout, England had to be subdued by losing to their opponents. Italy won Euro 2020.

That has sparked dissatisfaction, particularly among England supporters. To the extent that someone initiated a petition in Change.org, requesting that the Final of Euro 2020 Italy vs England be repeated.

One of the incidents that prompted the birth of this petition was the disappointment of the italian player's actions, specifically the pull of Giorgio Chiellini that caused Bukayo Saka to fall. This incident is considered a red card.

Sharon Guilmen, the petition's initiator, claimed that the match went unconsiderable due to the referee. "The match on 11/07/2021 was not fair at all after Italy only received a yellow card after attracting English players as if they were slaves," the petition reads.

To this day, Sunday (18/7), the petition has been signed virtually by almost 150 thousand people. To be precise, in the range of the 140 thousand.

Summarizing 90min.com and Caughtoffside, it raises the possibility of the petition entering the English parliament's discussion table. Under UK rules, any petition that gets more than 100,000 signatures is 'almost always' discussed by parliament.

If it is indeed discussed by parliament, it is very unlikely that the petition's mission will be realized. Moreover, the British parliament also has no authority in the final affairs of Euro 2020 Italy vs England.
