Watch: Group Of Maltese Fans Boo As Italian Anthem Plays Ahead Of Verbal Clashes Between Supporters

Footage showing the moment Maltese football fans booed during the Italian anthem ahead of last night’s Malta vs Italy match has left a bad taste in many people’s mouths.
This comes alongside footage of at least one Italian fan being removed from Ta’ Qali stadium as Maltese fans throw beer and liquids on him and escorting police officers.
“Show the video of the ignorant Maltese people booing for the Italian anthem, to the point that Italian supporters put up a banner saying ‘basta con le barzelette, l’inno va rispettato‘ meaning ‘enough with the jokes, the anthem must be respected’,” said one person online after the match.
“If other people do that to the Maltese anthem, panic, but doing to others’ anthems is just fine.”
The big match, which saw Ta’ Qali Stadium practically packed to the brim, saw Maltese lose to the Italians 2 – 0, with thousands of people excited to attend the game.
However, emotions clearly swelled at moments, with some fans deciding to act disrespectfully towards the other team.
