Fabio Capello was the targeted victim in a battle between clans that got out of hand," wrote Corriere della Sera, claiming that Anton Ferdinand would have forgotten Terry's alleged insults had his brother Rio not pushed him to punish Terry. "English football may be beautiful, but underneath – in the stands and in the changing room – it is not much different to continental football, a splendid soap opera," the paper wrote.
Corriere dello Sport pointed out how Capello's statements in his now famous interview on Italian TV were misreported and that he merely said that while he disagreed with the FA's decision on Terry, the decision was the FA's to make. But the quote "Terry is still my captain" slipped into the news cycle, and while corrections were issued, it was not enough to placate "those at the FA who had been waiting for the right moment to eliminate him."

What a crappy organization, they stoop lower and lower each day. ~sad.
