Bonucci: 'Very nice to see English fans leaving stadium. They thought it was coming home'

Speaking to the media after the Euro 2020 final, Leonardo Bonucci said: "It's an unique pleasure to see 58,000 people leave before the trophy presentation.

"I'm sorry for the English fans but it was very nice to see them leaving the stadium. They all thought it was coming home, but it's coming to Rome.

"Very nice to see, indeed. They thought it was staying here, I'm sorry for them but Italy has once again taught a lesson."

Bonucci also taunted the England fans after the final whistle, yelling 'It's coming to Rome' (a pun on 'It's coming home') into the camera.

The Juventus centre-back was named Man of the Match for the Wembley clash after scoring an equaliser and converting his post-match penalty.
