Italian Super Cup: Holding match in Saudi Arabia ‘disgusting’
(CNN)Matteo Salvini, Italy’s hard-line interior minister and deputy prime minister, says the decision to play the Italian Super Cup match between Juventus and AC Milan in Saudi Arabia is “disgusting” due to the restrictions placed on female fans.
Salvini, leader of Italy’s far-right League party, condemned the fact that sections of the King Abdullah Sports City stadium for the January 16th game will be reserved for men only.
In a Facebook Live video, Salvini, a Milan fan, said: “That the Italian Super Cup is played in an Islamic country where women can’t go to the stadium if they’re not accompanied by men is a sadness, a rubbish, I won’t watch the game.
