“I felt invincible, now I know my limits.” Talking is Stefano Tacconiwho suffered a brain aneurysm in April 2022 that made people fear the worst. Behind him, even if the recovery path of the former goalkeeper, who talks about himself to The Messengeris certainly not the simplest: “I didn’t remember what I had done before losing consciousness, in the following days I forgot what I ate. Little by little normality returned.”
However, the great fear did not stop the former Juventus and national goalkeeper’s love for football. Never stopped watching matches: “Absolutely not, football is a part of me. Even if I have one objection: I think the game from below is a disaster, you can’t see the goalkeeper playing with his feet. He already has so much to to do during the match while standing in goal seems like too much.
There are those who say that today’s football is faster, but that’s not true. Look at how many matches there are today: in the past there were great champions in our championship, the coaches just needed to do a bit of tactics because then quality made the difference.”
