Goldenfoot. Gigi Riva. Gigi Riva, with Piola and Meazza, was the greatest Italian forward: his football is characterized by a gushing physical exuberance that won him the renowned nickname of “Rombo di tuono” (thunder) given to him by the Italian journalist Gianni Brera. Riva embodied the ideal mix that should characterize the great strikers: not only strength but also speed, skill and courage which made him one of the best-loved players by all the football fans. წაკითხვის თარიღი: 1 თებერვალი, 2018.
