Conference League: Rome wakes up after the feat

But the first European final after 31 years is celebrated in a contained way: for the Giallorossi people the best is yet to come

“But then even this morning is it all true?”. The day after Roma Roma wakes up happy and no longer incredulous. The first absolute final after nine years, the European first after 31, the tears of Mourinho, the full Olimpico, three myths like Totti, Ranieri and Giannini protagonists in the stands and on the sidelines, the tongue of Lorenzo Pellegrini who was criticized a year ago because , among the follies of football, there is also that of personally attacking a 25-year-old boy who attends the (complicated) birth of his wife and today is a beloved captain: there is a lot of enthusiasm in the day after the Giallorossi.

Taken in holiday

There was last night, when there were carousels in the city, some sympathetic assault on the bus drivers (“take us to Tirana”, the most popular song) and many flags along the road: a spontaneous, pure, but contained party. Because so many people were upset after the emotions of the Olimpico and because the great feeling is that “the best is yet to come. Thanks Josè, marry me “. The mood, more or less, is this: requests for marriage, baptism (and this is not the first time), people who want to organize a “pilgrimage to Setubal dal Vate” and people who call on the radio to say: “My wife has the due date for childbirth on May 25th. If she gives birth that day I leave her ”.

Fans and former presidents

And then, again: “One of the most beautiful things is Diawara who never plays but goes to celebrate with his teammates under the curve”; “I’m putting on my swimsuit to go swimming in Tirana”; “I once had an Albanian girlfriend, I call her back and I let myself be hosted”. Between jokes and smiles, between emotion and enthusiasm, there is also room for the words of former president Rosella Sensi: “This Rome made us proud in an unforgettable night, now comes the best. Bravi and the coach and the team. And obviously the fans, the only ones “. No word, however, from the president Pallotta. But nobody noticed. “Because he should be thanked after all – one of the many comments on the web -. He left us with the Friedkins ”.
