Friday evening, the London stadium was lit up in the colors of Italy, heavily struck by the coronavirus with nearly 1,000 dead counted over a day.


The Covid-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc in Italy. Friday the balance sheet increased in this country with 969 additional victims and a sad toll of 9134 people died. Wembley stadium, which was originally intended to host a friendly football match between England and the Transalpine selection Friday evening, wanted to support the Italian population. Friday evening, the arch overlooking the stadium was lit up in the colors of Italy, green, white and red. "We are far but we are together. Go Italy ” , had been written at the entrance of the enclosure.

Although we couldn't welcome you to Wembley tonight, we are with you @azzurri.
