Bergamo. It certainly doesn’t happen every day that the mayor of a provincial capital “bows” to his city’s team. The mayor of Bergamo Giorgio Gori found the words perhaps most suitable to describe the wonderful relationship between theAtalanta and the Orobic city.
A team that “inspired Bergamo” for its tangible presence in the most tragic moments of Bergamo’s recent history, a club that was able to “think of itself as European” and that built a model that led it to compete – with humility but without fear – with much more successful teams than her. A model that, perhaps, can also be glimpsed in the city politics of recent years.
Gori entrusted his reflection to social media, with a touching post in which he channeled all the strong emotions felt in recent days: “You have to be lucky, but really, to be there when something like this happens. When it happens that your favorite team , the team that is one with your city, overturns every prediction and rises to the top of Europe, realizing a dream so beautiful that we didn’t even allow ourselves to dream it.”
The mayor further highlights the great debt that he, like all Nerazzurri fans, owes to the main architect of Dublin’s great triumph, Gian Piero Gasperini: “It’s not for nothing that we wanted him to be an honorary citizen: Gasp, one of us.” And if it is true that at present the coach’s future still appears uncertain, the bond between Gasperini and Bergamo is something that will undoubtedly remain, an indelible segment in the sporting history of the city.
Without forgetting to give value to the possibility of spending these exciting moments with what is one of the most important things for every person, the family: “In an experience like this, being with your child, as happened to me, makes this day unforgettable For all life”.
And it’s exactly like this: for all the people of Bergamo the May 22, 2024 it will remain a memorable date, the day in which for the first time in their history Atalanta and the city of Bergamo became queens of Europe.
