Goodbye Trap cry from Italian media
Goodbye Trap, ran the headline in sports daily Corriere dello Sport. The editor of the Corriere, Xavier Jacobelli, has been one of Trapattoni’s most vociferous critics since Italy’s ignominious World Cup defeat by South Korea in June. Jacobelli’s editorial was characteristically combative.
“Considering the crisis of play and ideas Trapattoni’s team finds itself in, the only thing that counted yesterday evening was to emerge unscathed from the Millennium Stadium. Instead it was another disaster.”
