Frankie Dettori backing Italy in Euro 2020 final

:Headline: Frankie Dettori backing Italy in Euro 2020 final:
Jockey plans hideaway vantage point as Azzurri face England at Wembley.

Frankie Dettori will be "hiding somewhere" as he watches on when his beloved Italy clash with England in the Euro 2020 final.

The hugely popular Italian rider was at Wembley on Tuesday to see the Azzurri knock out Spain on penalties in their semi-final, but will not be there in person on Sunday night.

Looking back on England's victory against Denmark – sealed by Harry Kane's swift rebound from his own saved penalty, given after a contentious foul on Raheem Sterling – Dettori is expecting a tight affair.

He said: "I watched most of the match until you (England) got the phantom penalty and I decided to go to bed!

"I went to the Italy semi-final – I took Andrea (Atzeni, fellow jockey) with me, and my daughter. I was given tickets, so I thought it was a good opportunity, and it was a rollercoaster to be honest with you – I felt like I'd had seven rides at Royal Ascot afterwards!

"I'm not going to the final. I'm taking my wife away for a couple of days and didn't realise it was on the same day as the final, but maybe it's a good thing, in case we get beat! I'll be hiding somewhere, and watch it by myself.

"I don't think anyone could wish for a better final, and I think it will be close.

"I'm Italian and obviously I'll be rooting for my country. But you are at home, you'll have 60,000 people behind you as the 12th man – and that could swing it your way."
