Italy's 2006 World Cup victory marked the end of its footballing dominance, as the Calciopoli scandal that same year led to Juventus's demotion and weakened Serie A financially and competitively. Despite AC Milan and Inter's Champions League wins in 2007 and 2010, Serie A has since struggled in European competitions, losing top talent to the wealthier English Premier League. Infrastructure issues and outdated tactics have further hindered progress, along with a decline in youth development. Resistance to modernization persists, and while Italy won Euro 2020, it has performed poorly in World Cups, failing to qualify in 2018 and 2022, highlighting a significant fall from grace.

Gianluigi Donnarumma and the thrown money
Well, folks, buckle up for the wild ride that was yesterday's Champions League showdown at San Siro! AC Milan went head-to-head with PSG, and guess who was in the spotlight?
None other than Gianluigi Donnarumma, facing his old team! The fans, not ones to hold back, decided to show their "affection" by showering him with money!
Talk about a unique way to express your feelings, right?
In the end, AC Milan had the last laugh, clinching the victory with goals from Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, making it 2-1! Now that's what I call drama on the pitch!

The story of Real Madrid's goalkeeper chase
The Real Madrid goalkeeping situation is set to take centre stage in the summer - with Roma refusing to sell Alisson, perhaps Mino Raiola will be able to get Gianluigi Donnarumma to Spain? Or could David de Gea be the man to solve Florentino Perez's problem?
