Italy ended up under accusation both for not having qualified for the World Cup and for having reduced the dressing room of the Barbera Stadium in Palermo to a pigsty. The images of shame, those of the badly reduced locker room, have circulated on social networks until they become viral. Images accompanied by many insults for the Italian national team both for its behavior on the field and for its rudeness.
Changing room in Palermo reduced to a pigsty, Bonucci apologizes: "We made a big mistake"
Several days after the incident, Leonardo Bonucci , one of the senators of the Italian national team, decided to put his face on it and also apologize for the behavior of his teammates: "We made a big mistake, surely next time we will pay more attention . In the disappointment we have not thought about certain details that make the difference. In the future, we will ask for more equipment for cleaning and disposing of waste. We apologize".
National shame, from the sensational defeat against Macedonia to rudeness in the locker room
Italy-Macedonia will always be remembered as the game of shame. Shame both technical and post-game behavior. In fact, everyone took the very final playoff between Italy and Portugal for granted but hadn't reckoned with the Azzurri. The Portuguese have respected the prediction by winning 3-1 against Turkey, not without suffering as the Turks have missed the penalty of the potential 2-2, but the Azzurri have slipped at home against the very small Macedonia.
Furthermore, Macedonia did not have its stars Pandev and Elmas. Pandev said goodbye to the national team, although he still plays in Italy, while Elmas, player of Luciano Spalletti's Napoli, was not available for this meeting. Yet Italy attacked in a sterile manner and then was punished by a shot from a very long distance beyond the ninetieth. When it was now impossible to equalize. After this very serious defeat, the Azzurri behaved in an uncivilized manner, reducing the dressing room of the Barbera Stadium in Palermo like a pigsty. The rest, including Bonucci's belated apology, is history …
