These 'small' things about football

It was a weekend marked by misfortune in the world of football. Sometimes the sport, often such values, effort and improvement, it becomes a reflection of life to remind her more bitter. This past Saturday left us Piermario Morosini , Livorno football after suffering heart failure in the middle game against Pescara. In recent days have been in the news the difficulties he had spent the player after losing his parents and his brother before age 18, being orphaned himself and his disabled sister, Maria Carla, who lives in a medical school, financially dependent him and that after the death of Piermario seemed to be alone in the world. Not so: Udinese club that had the rights of Moro (was on loan at Livorno), through its nonprofit organization 'Udinese per la Vita' has launched an initiative for which custody and will assist with the collaboration of all clubs in Serie A and Serie B, Morosini's sister permanently.

It has been his best-known and charismatic footballer, striker Toto Di Natale, who had a great relationship with Morosini, working with the Foundation for Life Udinese like other staff members, who contacted all the captains of Series A and Series B and announced the decision, and promote initiatives in the Calcium: "It was an exceptional partner, so full of life. Despite all the problems I had, was always available to the team and gave all his strength for it, "adding:" I lost my mother four years ago, and as he had already been through that was very close to me. He loved life and find success, for him, his family and had no sister. I immediately said we could not play last night was not right. I applaud the FIGC (Italian Football Federation) for making the decision, on a day like this football is impossible. "

Thus Morosini's sister assists and care will have a monthly fee for life. Surely this is the best way to honor the memory of Piermario and he would have wished, that his sister contase with all necessary support and will not ever missing anything. The Atalanta, whose squad in lower categories grew Morosini, is actively involved in the proposal and the hand of Livorno president Aldo Spinelli. But not the only initiative on behalf of Morosini: Livorno and Vicenza, the club he played from 2007 to 2009, have decided to withdraw the number 25 in his memory. Sometimes football and life extension results in tragedy, however, is sometimes of such a tragedy from which arise those stories that are worth having.
