In what should be touted as an epic battle between two Euro Championship starved teams, Italy hasn't won the title since 1968 and England has never won it, instead, we are talking about the semi-final where lasers, fireworks, and unsportsmanlike booing during a national anthem took place by England fans. Almost 28 million fans watched England beat Denmark after a penalty kick rebound in the 104th minute, compare that with 8.5 million viewers for Game 1 of the NBA Finals. In thrilling fashion, Harry Kane scored on a penalty kick rebound after it was initially saved. However, that was not the big controversy after the media caught this image of what looks to be a laser being pointed into the Denmark goalie's eyes...

The controversy started well before that, as UEFA is also expected to charge England with booing during the Denmark national anthem as well as lighting off fireworks near their supporters, also during the national anthem.
