Italia, la mamma di capello: "sono italiana, ma ora tifo inghilterra" - italy, capello's mum: "i'm italian, but now i'm england fan"
Creato il 05 giugno 2010 da RollingballsShe's Italian, but she's still a mom. In World Cup 2010, Evelina Tortul, 90 years old, Fabio Capello's mother will follow England. "To whom else should I cheer if I don't for my son?" She says, proud, to Ansa. Evelyn lives in Pieris San Canzian d'Isonzo, a country near Gorizia with little more than 2 000 inhabitants and where 64 years ago was born coach of english lions. She lives alone and it is difficult to reach her: family decided by secret telephone contact to avoid media onslaught and to ensure absolute privacy. But about his son, his "great pride", she talks. Who has the opportunity to meet her, he can only read in her face enthusiasm for Fabio's career."I know that I'm Italian and cheer for Italy, but in World Cup I will support my son. I am very proud of him and his career. Who would not? ".These days, Mrs. Evelina was chased by the British press that is going in droves to the birthplace of mystery to reconstruct his childhood and early youth. She granted few interviews, but her closest friends tend to protect her from the stress of cameras, limiting their presence to avoid she could be too tired. Capello family has always been well known and respected in Pieris, even before the success of the coach. It lived in historic center, in courtyards and in 1949, when Fabio was three years old, moved into an apartment near the city hall, where Evelina still lives. His father, Guerrino, estimated primary school teacher and great player, died many years ago, while Fabio's elder sister of Fabio, Bianca, now lives in Mestre.Although still far from home, the coach England never forgets the mother. When he can, he visits her and contacts, at least by telephone, are a constant. The last meeting between the two dates back a few days ago, returning from a game played in Austria. English coach was also seen by some supporters while walking near the town hall, some wanted to take pictures, but among them there was only time for a brief exchange of words, then Fabio, as a good Italian, has preferred to the short time available with the mother. In Pieris World Cup fever is already skyrocketing. Even Capello's former neighbors are Lippi's side, but - they admit - are also ready to support their "old friend" when his players were able to go ahead of the Azzurri. English as a second choice, then. Despite his rather shy and reserved, Capello was one of the people that are always spoken in the country that has seen him grow. His talent has always been a topic of discussion and debate among friends and supporters who follow him when, in 1958, began to take its first steps in training the local football association."He played with Pieris until 1964 - tells a longtime friend, Gianfranco Russi - when he joined Spal Ferrara". And then there were others: Roma, Juventus, AC Milan. But summer break between the league and the other, he always returned to Pieris. "And even in those months stops training walked 7-8 km daily running to keep fit. Then he went hunting or devoted to diving. A dedication and a spirit of sacrifice certainly inherited from his father that all his pupils always taught the values of sport and the commitment necessary for them to perform".He maintained contact with peers of Pieris and has always informed of the results of the local club, until work commitments gliel'hanno permission. That is, until he began to coach AC Milan of Gullit and Van Basten.
