In the final against Liverpool, AS Roma wanted to exhibit the logo of the she-wolf and the Scudetto on their jersey together. FIFA allowed one logo at a time on the jerseys. And Romanisti picked their logo, to describe the love for their team comes first in every victory. Ago was a simple, discreet, and introverted person; may he rest in peace. Yeah, he never played for Azzurri, but at the time, many players were excluded because Bearzot managed the national team like a family. Evaristo Beccalossi was never called, and Roberto Pruzzo was rejected in the 1982 World Cup despite being the Serie A top scorer of that season. Great piece btw.
