There is, but it's not what most people think it is.

how come we dont have any in our showroom?

 

[Slagathor]

We don't? That IS weird... :undecide:

 

[Dj Juve]

okay, now I'm not sure whether we do have any or not....:undecide:

 

[sallyinzaghi]

we DO have serie a trophies? how come we dont lift em everytime we win like EPL ?

 

[Loppan]

There isn't a Serie A trophie! The winner gets the italian flag on their jersey; that's the trophie.

 

[Zambrotta]

I'll reveal the answer to this question as it's already discussed.

There is no trophy. When you win the Serie A you get the little italian badge on the chest. So Loppan had the correct answer.

 

[Kaiser Franco]

1. Frank Rijkaard
2. Parma
3. Lineker
4. There is no serie A trophy
5. Dunga?
6. Harald Schumacher
7. Because of the "Totonero" scandal regarding illegal bets, in which he was involved.
8. Vieri
9. Inter-Juve (it's spelt "derby d'Italia" btw)
10. Gre-no-li
11. Denmark
12. Kipling? (shame on me for not knowing this one)
13. Because it is the colour of Holland's Royal Family since William of Orange?

 

[Zambrotta]

Impressive.

 

[Kaiser Franco]

Is Dunga the correct answer to question number 5? Coz after due reflection I thought it might be Taffarel.

 

[Zambrotta]

both are incorrect

 

[Kaiser Franco]

Umm...Leonardo?

 

[Zambrotta]

Actually it's rather easy, you know he had a crucial part to its outcome.

 

[Kaiser Franco]

Oh wait, you did not say that it had to be a brazilian player. I think I got the answer now : Nicola Berti.

 

[Zambrotta]

Did he even play then?

 

[Zambrotta]

Keep guessing... you're getting closer.

 

[Kaiser Franco]

Yes. Berti suffered a major injury which kept him out for most of the season that year. He did however recover just in time to play the last few games of the League and left a tangible enough impression for Sacchi to select him.

 

[Zambrotta]

Ok I guess you're right. I doubt that he played in the final though.

 

[Zambrotta]

But seriously give it another guess.

 

[Kaiser Franco]

Berti did play the whole 120 minutes of that cursed final. Anyway, I really don't see who this mysterious player could be at this point. But perhaps you were thinking of Baresi. Kaiser Franz did get injured in the first game of the tournament, only to make a miraculous comeback just in time for the final, where he played a superb game (the Gazzetta gave him 8,5 the next day as I recall), but missed that fateful penalty in the shootouts lottery. The image of the legendary 34 year old warrior crying on the shoulder of a staff member will remain forever imprinted on my memory.
