Overview: I guantoni come quelli di Zenga, da lavare dopo ogni allenamento e conservare con la pellicola per farli durare di più, le scarpe nuove con i tacchetti che ne compri un paio e basta, poi tocca al calzolaio sotto casa rattopparle. Ma soprattutto il pallone. Ovunque ci sia un pezzo di prato, meglio se fangoso, su cui buttarsi per parare. Perché questa è la storia di un ragazzino che diventa grande nella periferia torinese costellata di simboli granata negli anni Settanta. La storia di un sogno da calciatore, anzi da portiere («Perché giocare in porta è tutta un’altra cosa»), la passione di un ragazzino destinato a diventare grande tra i pali. Non da titolare, ma da riserva, attraversando la provincia dell’Italia che cambia. Non c’è solo il calcio, nel percorso narrativo in cui si trasformano vita, carriera, vicissitudini, famiglia e squadre di Alberto Maria Fontana, conosciuto da amici e tifosi come Jimmy. Sì, proprio il portiere di riserva e tifoso del Toro. L’inseguimento della sua vocazione si svolge lungo una strada segnata da episodi e partite, aneddoti e riflessioni: da Torino al Torino, passando per Aosta e Voghera, divagando fino ad Amburgo e tornando a Verona, muovendo nel cuore dell’Emilia e ai margini di Reggio Emilia, emigrando a San Donà, Pistoia, Palermo e Pescara, ma ascoltando ciò che succede a Baghdad, Lampedusa e Kabul, tra riflessi di calcio malato che illuminano le pieghe oscure di un paese in cambiamento. Dalla panchina del portiere di riserva parte il giro d’Italia, anzi il giro dell’anima affidato e trasformato in parole da Marco Mathieu, giornalista e tifoso, in questo caso responsabile del racconto, che mostra l’altra faccia del calcio, una faccia nascosta del nostro paese. E non solo.-----------------------------------------Gloves like Zenga’s, washed after every practice and wrapped in cling-film to make them last longer, new shoes with cleats, but only two pairs, then the cobbler near the house will repair them. But especially the ball. And anywhere there’s a patch of lawn or field, even better if it’s muddy, where you can fling yourself at the ball to make a save. Because this is the story of a kid who grew up in the Seventies in the outskirts of Turin studded with symbols of the Turin football club. The story of a soccer player dream, actually a goalkeeper dream («Because being the goalie is something else entirely»), the passion of a kid destined to grow up between the goalposts. Not first-string, but as a reserve goalie, all throughout the provinces of a changing Italy. There’s not only soccer in the course of this narrative where we see the transformations in the life, the career, the vicissitudes, the family and the teams of Alberto Maria Fontana, known to his friends and fans as Jimmy. Right, Jimmy, the reserve goalie and Toro fan. Following his vocation takes him on a route marked by episodes and matches, anecdotes and reflections, a two-way trip from Turin to Turin, passing through Aosta and Voghera, detouring up to Hamburg and back down to Verona, moving into the heart of Emilia and the borders of Reggio Emilia, emigrating to San Donà, Pistoia, Palermo and Pescara, but still attentive and listening to what’s happening in Baghdad, Lampedusa and Kabul, in the midst of reflections about the diseased game of soccer which illuminate the dark folds of a changing country. The reserve goalie’s bench is the starting point of this voyage through Italy, indeed through the soul, that was entrusted to and transformed into words by Marco Mathieu, reporter and soccer fan, and in this case the author of the story that shows the other face of soccer, one of Italy’s hidden faces. And not only Italy’s.
