Where Do Platypus Live

"A righteous man"

He's gone quiet on a cold day beginning of winter. The silence that was his style and because of its shape became more seal. Not because he had not words to say, the gentleman is not the Friulano wasted or used a few, all significant and full of flavor, and often was preceded by the facts. Who does not remember that news blackout of his players on the sports dailies announced 26 June '82 because of the criticisms and insults received before and during the World Cup? The "vecio" was the architect of Italy's most beautiful football history (Argentina '78). E 'in the torrid summer of 1982 he led his boys and a whole country to lift the World Cup. He leaves a those few people who managed to unite the Italians. And of the many words that have been written and said during his memorial I want to remind those of the captain Dino Zoff, the sole spokesman of that triumphant news blackout: "It 'was a good man." " The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice" (Psalm 36.30). " The lips of the righteous nourish many" ( Proverbs 10:21). Today in football so we need men like Enzo Bearzot.

closed his career at the World Cup in Mexico '86 and coached more. In a world where football coaches were beginning to become experts not only of tactics but of controversy, to scream, a screenwriter, and especially of idolatry of his image on TV, in print and on the bank account, Enzo Bearzot stands out like a coach out of time. It is precisely because of this timelessness that he remains not only the largest of its time but this time, the time of "football without a soul" . Giorgio Tosatti wrote in Corriere dello Sport after the victory World: "Lift up that cup, Dino and take it to the caresses Bearzot ... because it is his! ... Have you got a gift in a country priceless: faith in himself ". With these simple words in an interview with Guerin Sportivo sang the victory of his boys: "It 's a world title that no one can dispute: we won four games against schools below several football , Latin America and Europe, and no one can say that there was something nice, we won a world championship in more cleanly as perhaps had never happened ". With humble and wise leader.
