It wasn’t a good look for Alessandro Bastoni during Inter-Juventus when he caused and celebrated Pierre Kalulu’s red card, but it would be wrong to omit him from the Italy national team for this, writes Lorenzo Bettoni.

You can’t act like that and then appeal to “unity” after. I want us to miss a third world cup in a row if we are going to be represented by men of such low and dishonourable character. Forza Northern Ireland next month.
Mr Bettoni running Bastoni’s PR campaign for the entire day
wonder how much was this worth
Yeah, Bastoni action was a disgrace. But hey, Rubentus playes have been doing it too for decades. Also Milan, Roma, Lazio players and so on and so on. Every club in Italy is full of dramas.
Seria A = the bane of calcio!
Omar leave Milan out of it. Inter are shameful
Finally, a reasonable take on this situation. Thank you!
The game is so soft, that’s why more and more 15/16 year olds are getting game time. The physical aspect of the game has been replaced with histrionics and cheating. This goes for all clubs/players.
Finally a reasonable take after all the hypocritical hyperventilation going on over the past few days. Bravo Lorenzo
Nicely written by the Inter fan lol
I’m an Interista and disgusted with Bastoni’s behaviour. Cheating is a cancer in the game and needs to be addressed as much if not more than officiating.
Well, after such a long reading and wasting my time. I still think that Bastoni should be dropped out of Italian national match. I really look forward to this Derby Fair Fight no matter who won or lose. I don’t want this to happen at World Cup. I always love to see Italy win like WC2006, but please not with Bastoni.
@Viktor Pippo Inzaghi & diving are Milan’s identical twins LMAO
