An awards ceremony with a surprise. It’s the one that took place on Monday night “Mister Vincente” organized byAiac Rovigo, the football coaches association, where, before the awards ceremony for the coaches of the Polesine teams that won the youth and senior championships, there was a special award ceremony, a recognition of the football “career” of three Polesine coaches: Carlo Spolaore, Piero Carnacina and Welcome Gianni Taschin. And it was to reward them Luca Gotti, fresh from renewing his contract with Lecce after having brilliantly led them to safety in Serie A. Contacted by Lorenzo Zecca, member of the Aiac of Rovigo, who shared his university studies in Ferrara with Gotti and with whom there is a strong friendship , the technician originally from Contarina strongly wanted to be present to reward his fellow villager Piero Carnacina, Carlo Spolaore, Gianni Taschin, and share an evening with the Polesine technicians. “It was truly a pleasure,” he says Giuseppe Nasti, president of Aiac Rovigor, having had the figure of Luca Gotti with us and to whom my public thanks go for his exquisite availability.” There was no talk of schemes and tactics, but there were hugs, handshakes, memories and sincere recognition to the coaches who shone through careers as important as those of Piero Carnacina, Carlo Spolaore and Gianni Taschin and to those who led their teams to success on the field this year. For the youth sector, the award is dedicated to Fernando Guaraldo, recently deceased and a historic member of Aiac Rovigo, and the plaque was presented by his wife Giulia with their son Mirko.
