Sampdoria were 16th in Serie B and battling relegation when this video was taken, but the fans turned up in huge numbers and look at that atmosphere. Wow! 😲👏🇮🇹
Does anywhere in Britain creates an atmosphere like that?

When Santi Carzola rejoined his boyhood club Real Oviedo back in 2023, he offered to play for free, to try and help his club get back to La Liga. The rules stated that playing for free wasn’t allowed, so he took the minimum wages that were allowed, he just wanted to help his club.
Today, at 40 years of age, he scored the opening goal in a victory that saw Real Oviedo make it back to La Liga for the first time in 24 years.
A true fairytale ending to a fantastic career. ❤️
