Genoa doubles: U18 scudetto and now U15 in the final, yet another Sbravati masterpiece

Genoa doesn’t leave. Double. Last Thursday Gennaro Ruotolo’s Grifoncini won the category championship. In the last act of the tournament, the rossoblu won the title by winning the final against Roma 2-0. In Ancona, the goals from Venturino in the first half and from Romano 12 minutes from the end were decisive. A great success for the youth sector led by Michele Sbravati, a true top player in the growth of young boys who not only emerge but are able, as happened in this period, to win titles. It is no coincidence that his name is often compared in this period to Cristiano Giuntoli’s Juventus.

The words of Zangrillo and Ruotolo
And immediately came the words of president Alberto Zangrillo who, through social profiles, complimented the boys: “Thank you Champions, now chase your dreams”. “The boys never gave up and – declared Gennaro Ruotolo at the end of the match – they always tried to grow and improve. Then in my opinion the important thing is to believe in it and want to achieve this goal, which I think is extraordinary and wonderful”.

Under 15 in the final
And now another satisfaction has arrived, signed by Jacopo Sbravati, Michele’s son. His Under 15s beat Milan in the semi-final and also reached the Scudetto final. The rossoblu, after winning the first leg 1-0, went behind in the return match but after Mandirola’s equalizer on a penalty kick they overtook Savona in the second half. “How nice! Once again our future faces a championship final – Alberto Zangrillo wrote on social media -. Affectionate congratulations to all the boys and their coach Jacopo Sbravati”. In the last act of the competition there will be Roma again and a new opportunity to write an important page in the history of Genoa’s youth sector.
