Bologna-Turin: «Whoever touches a woman is a worm»

In the not very pleasant postponement of Monday evening, at the “Dall’Ara” Bologna and Turin meet, a match which on the pitch pits the home rossoblù in excellent form and in full fight for a place in Europe against the Piedmontese team which is sailing , this year without too many shocks, in the middle of the table.

Perhaps even richer in ideas is the confrontation in the stands, between two groups of fans who have traversed and written the history of the Italian ultras movement since its inception. Over twenty thousand spectators: despite the infamous day and the cold that was starting to feel overwhelming, we managed to keep the average above this water line. The choice of the is emblematic and important Andrea Costa curve which, when the teams enter the field, in addition to being colored with flags, smoke bombs and scarves, displays two large banners in the center in the name of all the groups: “IF I SAY NO IT’S NO, WHOEVER TOUCHES A WOMAN IS A WORM ”, referring not only to the case of Giulia Cecchettin, who rose against her will to the forefront of national news, but to the scourge of violence against women in its entirety.

Other banners will be displayed during the rest of the match, always in the center of the curve, to greet some fans who recently passed away, while constant clapping and chanting for almost the entire match, accompany and support the initiatives of their team, a real surprise this season .

There were 598 guests present in the sector dedicated to them, while around a hundred can be seen scattered in the stands. More or less a dozen pieces present with 5/6 flags always moving throughout the 90 minutes. Just over half of the attendees sing but the choir throwers literally work hard to involve as many people as possible and keep the cheering high, aided by the drum. Even though they struggled and were overwhelmed by the home fans, they managed to make themselves heard very well, especially in the many offensive chants.

The match on the pitch ends 2-0 for Bologna, who celebrate under a Curva increasingly galvanized by this European prospect, which every victory consolidates even among the most skeptical and superstitious fans. Each match is a probative test of these ambitions, starting with the following one at the “Via del Mare”, at Lecce’s home, while Torino welcomes Atalanta at home with the obligation, especially towards its fans, to redeem itself.
