Materazzi: "Chivu brings character and Interism. That time we 'beaten' Pandev..."

N ew words that sound like a pat on the back, of respect and affection, of friendship and curiosity. Marco Materazzi is like that, direct and simple. When he understood that his friend Chivu would become the Nerazzurri coach, he grabbed his cell phone and wrote a message: "I don't know if it's true... but you deserve it". All true. Cristian will lead Inter after saving Parma in Serie A. He will return to Appiano through the main gate after years of apprenticeship in the Nerazzurri youth teams, shaping groups of boys who even today, scattered around Italy, remember his speeches in midfield and afternoons spent playing paintball. Materazzi had already bet on Cristian in February, after signing with Parma, and he is doing the same this time. "The fact that he is the coach is a great thing for all Inter fans".
