A footballer, a tennis player and a motorcyclist: three sportsmen and friends talk about each other in the special “La Roma dello sport”: tonight at 7.30pm and 11.30pm on Sky Sport Uno and streaming on NOW
ATP GENEVA, COBOLLI IN THE SEMI-FINAL
A footballer, a tennis player and a motorcyclist together in an exclusive location in the center of Rome (the Lanterna designed by Fuksas) with Sky Sport. A chat about their friendshipon the differences of their sports, on what connects them most: Rome and Rome. Even though their sports are so different, there are so many aspects in common: Bove and Cobolli have known each other since they were 8 years old… not from the fields of Trigoria, but from before the football fields, tennis united them as children. Friendship with DI Giannantonio arrived later, but now all together they are fun.
When destiny puts in front of you people you used to only watch on TV
We talk about crazy things by Flavio Cobolli to follow his Romeof hers 24 tattoos but also of Di Giannantonio’s difficulties when at the end of last season he was certain he would have to leave MotoGP. As children, in their respective sports, they followed Bove De Rossi, Cobolli Fognini and Di Giannantonio Valentino Rossi. Now everyone works alongside the athletes they admired on TV as children. “It’s fate that puts you in front of people you watched on television and you find them in your work”: thus Edoardo Bove on the embrace with De Rossi upon his arrival on the Roma bench.
Cobolli and tennis thanks to Fabio Fognini
Cobolli explains why the choice between football and tennis ultimately fell on individual sport: “If I chose tennis it is also thanks to Fabio Fognini. I always say it and I will always say it, He is my all time idol and having him there now is something special, I have a good relationship and when we can we share good moments together.”
By Giannantonio&Vale Rossi, Bove and the magic of Dybala
Vale Rossi represents something particular and unique to By Giannantonio, a true genius defines him. And then we asked Ox if he has found that genius in his football career this far: “Paulo Dybala It has a genius all its own. Playing with it helps you a lot because you know that when she has the ball I’m not telling you that she’s bankrupt, but she has a relationship with the ball that I’ve never seen until now.” Many ideas, many laughs. We are waiting for you tonight at 7.30pm and 11.30pm on Sky Sports One!
