Speaker: The following is a clip from this week's Italian football podcast.

I think people have got the wrong end of the message from the song. Actually, if you listen to the lyrics, it's more about all the heartbreak that we've experienced. And obviously, when that song was first written for Euro 96, that was 30 years on from 1966 and winning the World Cup.
Speaker: And it's it's something in a in a obviously in a in a fan from a fan's perspective, obviously, because we want football to come home. Obviously, it's probably not right to refer to home as as England for many people. I can understand why people find that a little bit arrogant. But I also think Euro 96, when it was first written, it was all about staging a tournament at home in England for the first time. So since since 66. So I think people have slightly taken it the wrong way. What's your prediction?
Speaker: I think it's going to be tight actually, I think it'll be quite cagey. I wouldn't be surprised this goes to extra time, having maybe both teams have scored, let's say 1 -1 going into extra time and obviously I'm going to have to go with England. So I think we're going to come through an extra time to win 2 -1.
