The Italians are expressing frustration and disappointment over Juventus Turin’s elimination from the Champions League. There are conspiracy theories suggesting that UEFA president Michel Platini, despite his history with Juventus, favored the victory of Galatasaray, led by Didier Drogba. The accusation revolves around the condition of the pitch, with claims that it was not adequately covered during the night and that only one side of the field was poorly maintained, seemingly to disadvantage Juventus. The headline “Thank you Michel” in Tuttosport reflects the sarcastic sentiment among Italian fans.
