The day continued at the Meschini sports centre, where the boys of Pianoscarano Lo Zucchero Filato competed against Real Rieti, La Lepre and La Tartaruga from Rome and a representative team from Civita Castellana in the first tournament of the integrated 5-a-side football Volunteering Festival “WE DO GOAL TOGETHER”.
The 4 teams created a hard-fought tournament where all the matches were balanced and played in the name of fair play and mutual friendship.
The victory went to the boys of Real Rieti, who after drawing the first match 2-2 with Pianoscarano Zucchero Filato, got the better of the Lepre e la Tartaruga and the Civitonica representative. After winning against Civita, Pianoscarano Zucchero Filato had to surrender with a result of 2-1 against the Hare and the Turtle, finishing the tournament in third place.
