A heartfelt tribute to the Myth. L'Unione Sarda, with tomorrow's newspaper, is giving its readers the special insert "Riva 80 nostalgia" , on the day of the eightieth anniversary of the birth of Rombo di Tuono. A total of 24 pages, which retrace the extraordinary story of the champion from Leggiuno through period images, interviews given by the Myth in recent times, memories from his teammates of the historic 1970 championship and the words of his son Nicola.

The initiative is part of the activities of the Gigi Riva Football Week, which began yesterday with the inauguration in the Giorgio Pisano room at the Unione Sarda . An extraordinary series of events scheduled until Sunday, which celebrate the figure of the man as well as the champion: tonight at 8 pm, also live on Radiolina, the event “Pensieri e parole” from the Doppio Malto club in Cagliari, with Veronica Baldaccini and Egidiangela Sechi.

From today, with L'Unione Sarda, it is also possible to purchase the DVD of Riccardo Milani's film "Nel nostro cielo un Rombo di Tuono". Tomorrow, the insert will be free in the newspaper on newsstands and on the L'Unione Digital app.
