According to the ordinance, the time limit of the movements for the participants in the event will start at 12 pm and will end at 5 am the following day

Atalanta want to give Gasp a trophy

Atalanta wants "the icing" of the Italian Cup. This is how coach Gian Piero Gasperini defined it as an eventual victory on the eve of the 'Tim Vision Cup' final against Juventus. For the 'Dea' it would be the first trophy of the Gasperini era and of the Percassi family, after years of great and historic placings.



Another examination for Juve

The future of Juventus and Andrea Pirlo is played within just 70 kilometers, between Mapei Stadium and Renato Dall'Ara. On the bulletin board he has already posted the Italian Super Cup, which he won in Reggio Emilia. but then he experienced enormous disappointments both in the Champions League and in the league, despite being still in the running for fourth place and therefore for a place in the most prestigious European competition.
