Its standout feature is the facade that incorporates various symbols of Qatari culture and is inspired by the sand dunes of the nearby desert. The Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy will deliver the venue using environmentally- friendly building materials and practices. Every part of the stadium district has been designed with sustainability in mind.

  • “I Guru Del Calcio”: Da Lippi a Mancini a Palazzo Ducale I Mister Salgono in Cattedra Di Redazione 04 Dicembre 2019 – 12:31
    1 “I guru del calcio”: da Lippi a Mancini a palazzo Ducale i mister salgono in cattedra di Redazione 04 Dicembre 2019 – 12:31 Genova. “Avete mai letto qualcosa di Hegel?”, chiede José Mourinho ai giornalisti sportivi. “Diceva: ‘La verità è nel suo intero’”. E in un’intervista Antonio Conte spiega: “Il calcio? E’ un mix. Arte e scienza insieme. Le conoscenze e il talento sono entrambi centrali”. Non c’è da stupirsi se due fra i più apprezzati tecnici a livello internazionale, uomini che hanno vinto trofei ovunque, citino filosofi oppure testi come la “Fenomenologia dello spirito”. Perché gli allenatori di calcio, tuttora chiamati con l’antica definizione di “mister”, sono oggi considerati dei guru, dei maestri di vita, vere e proprie guide. Dirigono. Ispirano. Con i loro moduli e schemi di campo parlano di “armonia estetica”, di “logica e organizzazione”, di “senso della bellezza”. Sono ascoltati e seguiti. Ammirati e osannati. Visti come personaggi prometeici e geniali. Imperfetti, sicuramente. Solitari nel loro complesso, remuneratissimo mestiere. Quando vengono esonerati, la loro caduta provoca rumore. Eppure ogni loro parola viene ponderata e commentata. Le biografie riempiono gli scaffali delle librerie. Le interviste sui canali tv fanno il pieno di ascolti. Da Nereo Rocco a Helenio Herrera la figura dell’allenatore ha sempre rappresentato l’immagine di un professionista capace di modellare la propria squadra con un’impronta Genova24.it - 1 / 3 - 29.09.2021 2 indelebile, che diventa a suo modo storica. E in Italia, da Fulvio Bernardini fino a Roberto Mancini, molti Commissari tecnici della Nazionale hanno attraversato nel loro apprendistato e carriera Genova, città che al calcio ha dato tanto e che nel mondo dello sport continua a essere al centro.

    Matchday 21 Serie A TIM 2020-21 5 - 7 February 2021 05/02/2021 20:45 - ARTEMIO FRANCHI FIORENTINA Vs INTER Fiorentina are winless in their last seven Serie A TIM meetings against Inter (D4 L3), after having won five of the previous six (L1). Inter are looking to do the league double over Fiorentina for the first time since 2013/14, under Walter Mazzarri. Fiorentina are unbeaten in their last six Serie A TIM meetings at the Franchi against Inter (W3 D3) – the last win for the Nerazzurri was back in February 2014. Fiorentina have their fewest points (22) at this stage of a Serie A TIM season for the first time since 2001/02 (when they were eventually relegated). In the last six campaigns the Viola have always decreased their points after 20 Serie A TIM matches, starting from 38 points in 2015/16. Inter have kept a clean sheet in their last three Serie A TIM games: in the last three campaigns, only once have they kept four clean sheets in a row, doing so in their last four games of last season. Inter have scored the most goals in Serie A TIM this season (49), whilst only Parma (14) have scored fewer than Fiorentina so far (21). Inter boss Antonio Conte has lost two Serie A TIM matches as a manager against Fiorentina (W5 D3); for the first time he could lose against a single opponent with each of the three sides he has managed in the competition (Atalanta, Juventus and Inter). Inter duo Romelu Lukaku (14) and Lautaro Martínez (10) have scored a total of 24 goals in Serie A TIM this season, three more than Fiorentina have managed so far.
