### Censoring the A.S. Roma logo

In the pre-match between FC Barcelona and A.S. Roma in the 2017–18 UEFA Champions League, which ended in a 4–1 victory for the Catalans, the logo of A.S. Roma team (breastfeeding a wolf to two children) was censored, which had a global impact and even provoked a reaction from virtual users. And even caused the A.S. Roma team to create its own Persian page on Twitter to communicate with Persian-speaking fans.
