Not since Paolo Rossi played for Italy in the 1982 World Cup have I seen Italy play this wheel. Rossi was an artist that made me love Italy for its football and pasta culture. Therefore I think Barilla should give free pasta to the whole world after their historical victory yesterday.
When will we see a magic personality like Paolo Rossi on the field again? Does anybody now what he does today?
Update 11 July:
The Swedish football writer Erik Dahlberg do kick your mind in Italian and other languish to at Total Football – check it out.
Hi Stefan ! I noticed you question about Paolo Rossi and what he does today. Concerning this, Rossi is nowadadays entrepreneur. Just now (I found out !) he bought a farm in Tuscany (http://www.waytuscany.net/root/agriturismo_2372.htm) After the end of its “goleador work” he had a successful career as real estate agent, now he starts with turism. I hope I satisfied your curiosity, kindest regards, “campioni del mondo, campioni del mondo, campioni del mondo, campioni del mondo!”:-) Vincenzo
