An Italian fans supports his team throughout the Six Nations tournament from four cities - who cares if they lost?
On 7 February, England met Italy at Twickenham stadium in Richmond, Greater London

The English have a reason to be happy - their team beat Italy 36 to 11
On 20 February, Italy faces Scotland in Edinburgh. Before the game, fans from both teams take the time to get to know each other over a few beers
The Italians grace their sense of humour by dressing up in kilts accordingly
The Italians who help pack out Murrayfield stadium still don't know what's coming - the game will end up 26 - 6 to the Scots...
The Italians fans, otherwise known as 'tifosi', get mobilised for the game against Wales on 14 March, at the Flaminio stadium in Rome. Close, but no cigar: the Welsh win it by 15 - 20. Maybe next year ...
