Mancini, Giant Tapir: “I deserved it”

Disappointment is metabolized, even a smile can demonstrate it, the one with which Roberto Mancini “collected” the giant Tapir that “Striscia la Notizia” gave him. “The Giant Tapir is more than deserved. I was confident, unfortunately sometimes things go wrong. But I don’t give up: we will try again for the next World Cup” declared the Italian coach receiving (this is the first time this has happened) the Tapiro d ‘ giant gold. Never before, in the history of the satirical news of Canale 5, has a giant golden Tapir been withdrawn by the winner.

It was the turn of the technical commissioner, who was very interested – like all Italians – for the sensational elimination of the national team from the final phase of the World Cup in Qatar. Reached by Valerio Staffelli in Coverciano, the coach of the Azzurri first collected a “classic” Tapir (the eighth of his career) and then – with the sportiness that distinguishes him – opened the gates of the National team to let the Striscia troupe with the giant version of the “prize”.

The full service will be aired tonight, from 8.35pm on Canale 5.
