(ANSA) – ROME, JUNE 11 – How much do we know about the history of football? How good and prepared are we in the face of questions about the most popular sport? Do we know how many titles Argentina has won? And where? Do we know who holds the record for goals scored in a World Cup final phase? Questions like these do not put the football fans with fine memories on the ropes but, in any case, they stimulate memories and ignite debates about the near and distant past. Riccardo Russo and Daniele Villa have provided a contribution to dust off the album of memories, with ‘The great football refresher’. This is a book (on sale from 21 June) that is actually a real ‘notebook of homework’ for holidays for adults and more, entirely designed for those who have a balloon instead of a heart (or head). With more than 1.2 million followers on Facebook, and almost 2 million followers on Instagram, over the years ‘Calling oneself bomber’ has become the football community par excellence, thanks to its goliardic, ironic, fun way of telling the colorful world of football. ball. The volume is aimed at those in abstinence from championship and cups; to those who are bored in front of the millionth, useless summer friendly … To those who look forward to the dreaded evening of the Fantasy Football auction … To those who think they know the life, shoe size and eating habits of every football player in the world, of the past and of the present. From the most goliardic and long-lived community of the web, hundreds of games, quizzes, tests, crosswords. A real challenge without geographical or historical borders, without flags, which will serve to revive never digested defeats or sensational triumphs. A real fun for those who love football and make it almost a reason for living. Even on vacation.
