Farewell to Pope Francis
Everyone’s champion
He died yesterday at 7.35. His testament: ‘Bury me in the ground.’ Funerals are probably on Saturday in Saint Peter. The conclave starts by May 10.
Football halted: Tomorrow, four Serie A games.
Zanetti: ‘What an idea, a game for peace.’
Much father
Pope Francis died yesterday at 7.35. The world of sports, which he loved, always felt close to him.
The Pontifex was 88. Kindness, simplicity and powerful messages against the war and inequities: he entered history. On Easter, his last, moving farewell to the faithful. Tomorrow the body in Saint Peter.
World Champion
Farewell to Pope Francis. He left a precious legacy, also for sports.
He died at 88, after 12 years of pontificate. Jorge Maio Bergoglio was in the first row until the last day, especially for the last ones, demanding a world of peace and solidarity. Passionate about football and a San Lorenzo fan, who will name their stadium after him. He left a permanent mark on those who met him. In Italy (and Argentina) there were no games as a sign of mourning. Parma-Juventus, Torino-Udinese, Cagliari-Fiorentina and Genoa-Lazio postponed.
Serie A rescheduled for tomorrow (18:30). Juve recover Yildiz, Toro offer another game for €1.
