Bad awakening this morning for Lazio, after the celebrations for last night's victory over Cagliari. The news that saddens the club is the sudden death of Pino Wilson, 76, captain of the first historic 1974 championship in Biancoceleste history.

He was born in Darlington, UK and lived in Naples until his brilliant football career began

"SS Lazio, its President, the coach, the players and all the staff express deep condolences for the disappearance of the captain of the first Scudetto Pino Wilson and join in the pain of the family", reads the club website.
