Italy and Argentina to play soccer’s ‘Finalissima’ in London

Associated Press  

NYON, Switzerland — European champion Italy and Copa America winner Argentina will play each other in London on June 1, UEFA and CONMEBOL said Wednesday. No venue was announced for the “Finalissima” — the first of three inter-continental championships that the two soccer bodies have agreed to stage. Thousands of ticketless England fans broke into the stadium to watch their national team play its first major final in 55 years. UEFA and CONMEBOL are building closer ties as they have teamed up to oppose FIFA’s push to stage the men’s World Cup every two years, instead of every four years.
