Italy‘s iconic defender Giorgio Chiellini revisited his infamous foul on England‘s Bukayo Saka, this time recreating the contentious moment with former Three Lions star Rio Ferdinand in Berlin.

Chiellini, a key figure in Italy’s Euro 2020 triumph, found himself in the spotlight once again as Three Lions fans vociferously expressed their sentiments towards him as he brought the trophy onto the pitch before the match.

The retired centre-back, who played a pivotal role in Italy’s victory over England in 2021, amused the crowd by reenacting the memorable incident that involved Arsenal’s talented winger Saka making a break towards Italy’s goal.

England, hopeful for a historic win on home soil, saw Saka thwarted by Chiellini, who expertly grabbed hold of the back of his shirt, halting the attack at a crucial moment during the final match.

Despite the intensity of the competition, Chiellini and Ferdinand shared a light-hearted moment as they recreated the scene, with Ferdinand playfully pulling a face while Chiellini sported a cheeky grin.

Ferdinand took to social media to share the amusing snapshot, captioning it with humor: ‘Three years on and he’s at it again ffs.’

Fans were quick to react, showing their amusement and admiration for the veteran defender, with many praising Chiellini’s skills and sense of humor.

While Saka has chosen to remain silent on the incident, Chiellini has openly discussed the controversial moment in the past, acknowledging his mistake but also highlighting the necessity of his actions to prevent a potentially dangerous situation on the field.
