7-1.Calcio Storico Fiorentino
Niels Ahlmamn Olesen(Denmark) Berlingske Tidende

Calcio Storico Fiorentino began in 16th century Florence and became a forerunner to modern day soccer. The blue team, ˇ°Azzurisˇ±, is headed for the final match against

ˇ°Rossosˇ± - the reds. The teams walk in procession through the streets, eyeing each other up and down. Tension builds with every step; the closer the players get to the arena, the more frenzied everyone becomes.
