The seventy, DolceAmaro YEARS OF "WHITE-HAIRED WIZARD"

Of the fifteen was now in charge of Inter's Massimo Moratti (an event which, embellished with a "treasure" of ten trophies in various championships and cups, will fall on 18 February) there is a mystery in particular the fans, and especially loved the players more than others: for how friendly and understanding, for the balance of large doses and humanity, which distributed at every opportunity, for the dignified simplicity with which it was placed, because he never pretended that they must be immune to criticism or to presumptuously claim some of the most talented players at his disposal. A "white-haired magician", as it was dubbed by Candido Reedy May 7, 1998 - consecutive day unforgettable triumph in UEFA final - on the pages of a soon unobtainable Gazzetta dello Sport. This Magician our national born in Crevalcore Bolognese, which bears the name of Louis (aka Gigi) Simoni, January 22 is preparing to celebrate the birthday number seventy-one from the technical director of AS Gubbio proud and can afford to browse the album of memories, rimembranti a past coach who got joys but also disappointments: the greatest joy and greatest bitterness, in spite of an honorable career over thirty years in large part to spending hard-earned promotion to Serie A, flowing within a few days and driving the company to which even today is often attributed to its shape, the restless and noble Inter team, designed in 1908 by a painter and Therefore, always refined, brilliant, unpredictable, crazy.

On April 26, 1998, afternoon of the decisive challenge Juventus-Inter with the two bitter rivals split at the top by one point, the "Delle Alpi in Turin to materialize the apotheosis of injustice, the culmination of a season full of discutibilissime arbitration decisions in favor of the Piedmont club (the most outstanding in home games against Udinese, Lazio, Roma, Bari, Piacenza and Brescia travel and Empoli), which, eight years later, would have legitimately paid for - with relegation to Serie B and the cancellation of two tricolor - the murky plots operated mainly by its general manager Luciano Moggi. A disrespectful character who is still offered the lead role in negligible talk show with a strong editorial line farcical, Don Luciano, of which he would later found the use of calling cards specific Swiss prevent any type of interception, useful for to speak secretly with the designation of arbitration, which he was a regular gift of these cards and with whom, in addition to regular meetings, harmony about the black jackets to be used for certain, and decisive match of the season. In addition, during the explosion of the scandal in spring of 2006, among other things came to light that under the broad confidence shared, the leader Juventus orders dispensed arrogant former referee Fabio Baldas, who worked as a slow motion and scream seguitissima sports media on Monday, about how and what changes in the eyes of viewers refereeing decisions took the day before (admittedly so, by both the pseudo-chaotic slow-motion that the same television program, at least an incontrovertible subjection): coincidentally, was his being Baldas designator Tournament 1997 / '98, or that history with the penalty foul not whistled incredibly following a macroscopic contact between the ungainly Juventus defender Mark Iuliano Inter striker Ronaldo. An incident that triggered the justified wrath of the usually quiet Simoni, so as to bring it into the field to set himself up as spokesman for the entire people of the Alfa and scream in his face to the match referee Piero Ceccarini, who a few moments after the dramatic penalty denied the striker carioca not assign one to Juventus, just one, and instinctive lashing sentence "shame on you!" . He never knew if he Ceccarini then really felt ashamed of But certainly the league, despite the differences in flowering Montecitorio parliamentary questions in the days following, he ended up a few points on the eagle shirts and the runner's coach Crevalcore, as well as his players and the fans all, had no choice but to seek redemption quell'iniquo and bitter epilogue to the forthcoming UEFA final.

fact, it was the sixth day of the month of Mary, the first period of the last tasty sorbets and school trips outside the city, when the Inter against Lazio in the presentatasi overwhelmed as the number one issue involved the dispute of an act alone, without longer need rely on the less exciting game of double return, to decide the winner, brought a 3-0 final to take over the beloved of his third UEFA Cup after a difficult journey, crazy, exciting in Paris which ended with goalkeeper Gianluca Pagliuca in the unusual guise of captain to lift what is now , almost exactly twelve years later, remains the most recent European laurels won by the team currently champions Italy. The reliable Simoni, therefore, became the first coach capable of giving a trophy to Massimo Moratti (generous president from February 1995 through a bold outlay of seventy billion lire and in the bottom four weeks of negotiations trembling, took office on top of the Milanese club fury and people in the name of the legendary father Angelo) setting, in the season 1997 / '98, a solid and concrete starting lineup even if unspectacular, based on some very good element (Pagliuca, Simeon, Djorkaeff), on both today's record- Attendance at Inter (Bergomi, Zanetti) and a unique, authentic, undisputed champion: Luiz Nazario de Lima, Ronaldo art, phenomenal Brazilian striker arrived in Milan as the trainer of events and dense Bolognese nell'elettrizzante summer 1997, probably foreign strongest of all of history, certainly the best athlete of the last two decades of world football.

a football game for anything spectacular, However, it will be the reason why, late one afternoon in late autumn 1998, Gigi good - just back from two consecutive victories, achieved in a Champions League match against defending champion Real Madrid - will suddenly be relieved: a choice made by the singular viepiù the fact that Inter were still in full swing for all objectives and that, together with that of the bench reconfirm inadequate Marcello Lippi at the expense of the talent of the highest crystalline playmaker Roberto Baggio, is perhaps to be stored as the biggest mistake committed Moratti from three decades of passionate management. A year and a half in the shadow of the cathedral, topped by a prestigious Cup win and earned a tricolor but unjustly faded photo finish, but it is enough to beat the coach emiliano initial skepticism with which it was received (to date, in fact, had never led any team to summit) and be permanently remembered with affection by the people unchanged , knowing that if it had not been unfairly robbed of the wand, Simoni would have created a magical pairing Italian-European. Inter managed at home, at the time, only to another magician: Argentina, bold and without white hair.
