Well it's been some time since I opened a thread, and after the relative success of Denco's "riddle me this" I thought I could carry on in this direction by testing your knowledge of football, as well as that of the very team you support. So hereafter are a few questions I have thought of.
I) Juventus questions
1) What are the two nicknames (one flattering, the other less so) that Gianni Agnelli coined for Roby Baggio ?
2) What was Luciano Moggi’s profession before he became the Godfather of Italian football ?
3) Which referee has allegedly been a president of a Juventus fan club ?
4) Which Juve player was nicknamed "bello di notte", i.e. "beautiful by night", a hint to the fact that his talent shone most often during night – read European – games ?
5) To which player did Gianni Agnelli refer when he said these words : "we bought him for a slice of bread, and we put caviar on it"?
II) General questions
1) What was the real profession of Pak Do Ik, the amateur North Korean footballer who scored the winning goal that humiliatingly sent Italy out of WC 1966 ?
2) What game has been referred to as "the battle of Santiago" ?
3) What physical trait did Hector Castro bear, the scorer of the 4-2 with which Uruguay beat Argentina in the first edition of the Rimet Cup?
4) For what reason did India withdraw from WC 1950 ?
5) Which famous goalkeeper refused to invite Maradona to participate in his testimonial game?
Can't bother thinking of more questions right now so let's see how you cope with these.
