Vi mindes Italien og verdensmesterskaberne med vores kærkomne Toto Schillaci! 😢⚽

Den italienske fodboldlegende Salvatore "Toto" Schillaci er død i en alder af 59 år, efter at han har kæmpet mod en kræftsygdom. Schillaci, der spillede en central rolle i Italien ved VM i 1990, blev kendt af alle for sine seks mål, som sørgede for, at han vandt den eftertragtede Golden Boot. Hans præstation gav ham ikke blot national heltestatus, men han blev også et uforglemmeligt navn i fodboldens historie. Han har spillet for klubber som Juventus og Inter Mailand, som begge har været medvirkende til hans store rejse.

Schillaci er ikke kun husket for sine mål, men også for sin karismatiske tilstedeværelse på banen. Fans elskede hans simple, men effektive stil, som gjorde ham til en fryd for øjet, når han driblede og sparkede bolden ind i nettet. Da italienerne frontede for deres hjemland under VM i 1990, samlede Klub Toto Schillaci et helt land bag sig, og hans passion og dedikation er stadig i god hukommelse i dag.

Den tidligere spiller blev indlagt på hospitalet for en uge siden, hvor han fik behandling for tyktarmskræft. Til trods for hans sygdom og kampen mod den grusomme diagnose, forblev Schillaci en optimistisk figur, som aldrig mistede sin forkærlighed for fodbold. Fans og familie samledes i solidaritet, og hans historie lever videre i den italienske fodboldverden, hvor han i mere end tre årtier har haft indflydelse.

Toto's ikoniske øjeblikke i fodboldhistorien vil blive husket af alle, der elsker spillet. Især hans sure, men intense blik, der blev et symbol på hans ubarmhjertige tilgang til spillet. Må han hvile i fred, mens vi til enhver tid husker en mand, der gjorde en verden af forskel på banen.

Vidste du, at Schillaci er den første spiller i VM-historien til at score i sin debut og endda i finalen? I løbet af sit liv, levede han også under plejerne hos Bologna, hvor han startede sin karriere på den italienske scene og hurtigt gjorde sig bemærket. Han vil altid være en del af de mange, der drømte om at score guldmålene i tiden, hvor lande kæmpede om ære på fodboldens største scene!
