Italy's Veratti doesn't fear England, calls controversial Sterling penalty 'generous'

FLORENCE: Italy midfielder Marco Verratti says he would not have awarded the penalty for England that lead to Harry Kane's deciding goal in their 2-1 semi-final victory over Denmark on Wednesday night, describing the decision as "generous".
Raheem Sterling burst into the penalty area in extra time and appeared to lose his balance following a challenge by Joakim Maehle.
The England winger eventually fell to the ground after a nudge from another Denmark player, Mathias Jensen.
The referee pointed to the penalty spot, the decision stood after a review by the video assistant referee and Harry Kane scored - off the rebound after the penalty was saved - to send the hosts to the final of a major competition for the first time since 1966.
They will meet Italy in the final, who are currently on a 33-match unbeaten run - a national record.
