But not from the stands with the away Sassari fans: some of the visitors' supporters left during the minute of silence in honor of Rombo di Tuono, an episode which - reported by some Tuscan sites which followed the match news - is making a big difference discuss on social media . Many users, Sardinian and otherwise, express disdain, many others dissociate themselves from the decision.
«Between Torres and Cagliari there is a historic football rivalry that divides the two sets of fans from the north and south of Sardinia », highlights the Ansa agency, reporting the news and also underlining that around fifty supporters of the Sardinian team took part in the trip ( who then lost the match against the Tuscans 5-1 ).
Among the many messages of affection and condolence that arrived in recent days following the news of the death of the great champion of Cagliari and the national team, there was also one from the Sassari club, which wrote on Instagram: «Torres joins in the pain of the world of football for the passing of Gigi Riva, legend of Italian and international football. An example who, with his values expressed on and off the pitch, inspired entire generations."
