Two privileged witnesses reveal us everything about the world of football, in all honesty and without reserve. A faithful inquiry with the flavour of the old football: honest, romantic, unpredictable.
Former international referee Paolo Casarin and sports journalist Darwin Pastorin analyse the world of football. They tell us about memories, stories, anecdotes, important and less known figures, satisfactions and disappointments, victories and defeats – in their life and professional activity rather than on the football field – to understand football and its mysterious charm. The result is an emotional travel in the past, a wide range of characters, stories of sudden crisis and unexpected recoveries, with the optimistic hope in a positive future for what, however, remains the most popular and beloved sport in the world.
