England deserved their penalty trauma' - Germany legend Matthaus hammers Three Lions & their fans


The former Bayern Munich star was unimpressed with the conduct and behaviour shown by Gareth Southgate's side and their supporters

England and their supporters "deserve the trauma" of their Euro 2020 final penalty shootout heartbreak against Italy owing to their conduct throughout the tournament, claims Germany legend Lothar Matthaus.


The Three Lions suffered a 3-2 spot-kick reverse against the Azzurri at Wembley on Sunday, having held Roberto Mancini's side to a 1-1 draw after extra-time.

And former Ballon d'Or winner Matthaus has little sympathy for Gareth Southgate's side, with the 60-year-old particularly unimpressed with the behaviour of certain supporters.
