Rome, 11 December (LaPresse) – ‘Milan-Como no longer in Perth? There were already doubts, even though there were some undoubtedly positive aspects. I am used to respecting roles and evaluating the balance. The issue has evolved and, all things considered, I think it's fine this way.’ This was the comment made by the Minister for Sport, Andrea Abodi, on the sidelines of the presentation of the new anti-doping centre, regarding the now seemingly unfeasible idea of having Milan-Como played in Perth. When asked about Pier Silvio Berlusconi's dream of broadcasting a league match on free-to-air television on Sunday evenings, he replied: "I don't know if it's useful to have a free-to-air window for the league, but it depends on the policies that the League will develop. I believe that any option is feasible, even if the championship has been broadcast only on platforms for some time now.‘ As for the stadiums in view of the 2032 European Championships, when asked if a miracle will be needed to complete the facilities in time for the event, he explained: ’I don't know if I would consider it a miracle, but the season of action is beginning because, in parallel with the deadlines set by UEFA, we have our own dignity to uphold."
