Not many Welsh fans have made it to the Stadio Olimpico in Rome for Wales’ final Group A match against Italy.
The few who traveled to support the team must quarantine for five days when they return under British travel rules. Gian Fulgoni was among those who thought watching the game was worth it.
The 55-year-old Welshman who works as an IT technician in London says “I’m lucky because I work from home. But for a lot of people it’s impossible.”
Fulgoni he was supposed to have traveled with a group of 10 people but eight of them canceled because of the travel restrictions.
He says “they couldn’t self-isolate. It’s a shame.”
The Welsh fans narrowly avoided having to self-isolate in Italy as well. The government last week announced a five-day quarantine requirement for travelers from Britain but it only takes effect on Monday.
