Collina smiled and came to Christina and Merck's table, and Christina immediately said Collina's favorite passage very excitedly:

"My son, I see you, you're in front of the TV watching cartoons and football games. I'll hold you and sit on the couch. You immediately asked me about the referee. He wears a yellow outfit and makes a big impression on you, perhaps because he reminds you of a character from a comic strip. You prefer the guy who needs to make decisions in a fraction of a second, like Gianluigi Buffon in a rosy shirt, Ronaldo in a bare head, or Adriano in earrings. A penalty, an offside, a foul. And above that, the people in the terrace seats vented their frustration for a week and their anger at failure. "In the world of football, there are so many cases that they all become characters: that right winger, Fernando Arcideli, is the title of a poetic book; center, interpreted by Soriano; The goalkeeper, Dino Zoff, openly outspoken. But only he, my son, the referee in the yellow uniform who makes you laugh, is the real man. "In my career, I've met a few referees and there's always been a melancholy in them that has never been revealed: they're worried about a tough start to the game. For example, on an unprotected pitch, where there is no order, and the ball is played by young men without beards, who are encouraged by angry fathers, overly agitated leaders, and rude and unreasonable players. Many people have scars on their faces caused by fists, bottles, stones.

Ridiculous story: A few hours after the game, they were afraid to go out in the locker room, like some spy movie, and ended up hiding in the luggage compartment of their car and escaping the field. There is only one wish in my heart, and that is to speak. They don't have much salary, they don't have any reputation, and the local newspaper often misspells their names, so why risk living like this? No one grows up to be a referee by accident. It was a deliberate choice, with love and pain, believing in justice and believing in rules. And so, those lonely people decided to move on, they longed to be able to reach the first division, or even to be able to command a World Cup final...... "To this day, I always feel that these young people are very relatable. They went to work as referees on potholed fields, and only their own courage protected them. These young people, on Sundays, gave up the opportunity to go out and play or go to the movies with friends, and blew the whistle for us to start the game on time. My son, we watched the game, waited, ready to rejoice at our team's goal or grieve at a goal that could have been avoided. Without referees, football is meaningless: in a game, there can be no goalkeeper or center forward on the field, but there can be no man who runs, runs, runs, but never touches the ball and can't score. He deserves real applause, at least once, a applause that excites him. ”

These passages from Darwin Pastorin's last book, "A Letter to My Son About Football", are Collina's favorite, and they are also the common voice of referees like Christina, and also Merck!

And Corina actually knew Cristina so well about himself, so he said happily: "Christina, that's what refereeing is all about, because I think it's the best way to tell about my world, my world of referees." Who are these people? Their age, gender, cultural level, and social background are so varied. But it's the love of sports that brings them together to serve others who are really playing sports. I'm not just talking about football referees, even though I know the most about football referees, I'm also talking about referees in all kinds of other sports, basketball referees, volleyball referees, rugby referees, timekeepers, tennis referees, tennis sideline referees, and many other referees. The eyes of the television, or rather, its many eyes, actually make it impossible to tell any secrets during the 90 minutes or more of the game. It doesn't miss any details, it's all in full view, and then it's evaluated. It's as if talking about an iceberg. The iceberg floats on the water, and it looks so big that it feels like it's a qiē, and people don't think about anything other than that. Underneath the water, however, there is a much larger part, and only a few people can imagine its enormity. The referees are like this: everyone sees us for 90 minutes on the field, but very few, too few people will know who we are off the pitch. What do we do? What do we think? I am convinced that understanding each other will improve our relationship with each other, increase mutual understanding, and make us know how to cherish it. In a widely distributed arena, the best referee may be the least well-known. I always ask myself, why is this happening? I can't find the answer, because being a referee is not "hide and seek...... Maybe it's more true, the best referee is the one who doesn't make a lot of mistakes, but it's so banal that one can almost expect it. Then we can talk about "courage", the courage to make decisions, that is, to have the courage to make difficult and important decisions, and this courage makes the referee famous and becomes a protagonist. I'm not referring to the main character of the game. The best referee is the one who has the courage. He wouldn't shy away from the trouble he was in when he wasn't playing, he could have not solved it, he could have postponed it, but he would have chosen to make a decision right away. This is one of the most important characteristics, and one of my advice to young judges: study hard and strive to get this courage as soon as possible. ”

Merck was also thoughtful, while Christina nodded heavily, and then Corina continued: "If I close my eyes now, think back to June 2002, think back to 'my' World Cup, my first feeling is disbelief. Did I really spend 41 days in Japan? Did I really referee the World Cup final – Brazil vs Germany? A strange, unreal feeling enveloped me. The whole experience of that World Cup was so wonderful and so "perfect" when I talked about it that it made me wonder if I was just having a dream, a dream that lasted for more than a month. Thankfully, there are also videotapes and newspaper articles that confirm the truth of those things. If those few weeks were a script that I wrote ahead of schedule, then I hope that the reality is like that, and that not a single comma will be changed until the end.

By the way, not exactly. I wanted to change one thing: it was the location of the competition. I'm hoping to "visit" my World Cup in Viareggio or at least be able to play a few rounds in the vicinity of Lucca. If I were the director of this film, I would never have separated me from my family for 13,000 kilometers. But since I'm just an actor and not a director of the film, I can't deny that the World Cup, and that World Cup final that I officiated, was an extremely important event in my career and throughout my life. However, I don't like to talk about achievements. Achievement is a necessary prerequisite for stopping, resting, and looking backwards. To sum it up in one sentence: to talk about accomplishments means to sum up. I'm not ready to do these things yet. Many people think that once they have reached such a peak in their career, they should choose to give up. They call this "ending in beauty" so that everyone will remember you at that moment. That way, there will be no follow-up stories, and you won't make the inevitable mistakes that could ruin your mistakes. However, I love what I'm doing so much that I see the 2002 World Cup experience as a new www.biquge.info from where I'll start again. Anyway, it's just an intermediate stop in my journey, and I hope it's going to be quite long. Also, there were rumors that I would retire after the World Cup, but at the same time I got a lot of emails that wanted me to continue as a referee, which boosted my self-confidence.

I'm 43 years old and I can continue to referee for a few more years. Now my idea is simple, just keep doing what I've been doing, and I'm still keeping the same desire, the same passion, the same focus. ”

And Christina is also passionate, the World Cup final, that gold cup can make a country rejoice, that gold cup can make countless superstars fight for it, that gold cup is the honor of the whole country, it symbolizes the glory of a country's football!

And the World Cup final is the culmination of a referee's career! Just when the three of them sighed, the little sister just now appeared, it turned out that a tourist found Corina and asked someone to bring them three glasses of wine, is it customary for southern Italians to drink a glass of chilled limoncello after a meal? Although Limoncello limoncello is produced in other regions, the Limoncello of Capri is the most authentic. Here, there is a suitable climate, and there is Lake Garda to nurture lemon trees to thrive. Capri is proud of these citrus-like Limoncello, and who says Italy doesn't have its own wine story?

At the beginning of the 20th century, Capri's local bar greeted guests with a dessert wine with lemon zest, water, alcohol and sugar, and to this day, the Limoncello di Capri brand continues to carry on this recipe, adhering to the ancient tradition. Locals like to hand-pick the best lemons from Capri and Sorrento, peel them, cool them for a few days, and then add them to 1,800 litres of homemade wine at once, just enough for a family.

And three cups of LimoncellodiCapri made the three of them feel extremely cool under the scorching sun!
