I desire start on a serie of some articles about something extremely central in Rome: sport!

And regrettably, some of readers will tell me, I am forced to begin with football : This sport is like a religion for some Romans. Moving now to the heart of what gets the pulse racing of the Romans …

There are a lot of clubs in Rome, the best notorious are AS Roma and Lazio of Rome, which evolve both in Serie A, the Italian primary division. The third club in town, less established, is Cisco Roma.

You be able to note the presence of two clubs in a sport that few English know: the football with 5 players. Again two are fighting for win the hearth of Romans: The AS Roma and LazioColleferro futsal.

You see, to really notice the Roman foot, and I strongly advise you to, you should think about location rome or appartement rome to take the time to enjoy this part of the Roman culture.

AS Roma was 3 times champion of Italy and vice champion 11 times and won the Italian Cup 9 times!

The emblem represents Romulus and Remus suckled by the wolf. The anthem of the team is written in Roman dialect, here is it, thus you will croon it with the Italian tifosi:
Roma Roma Roma core de sta città unico grande amore de tanta e tanta gente che fai Sospir
Roma Roma Roma lassace cannot, da sta voce nasce n’coro so ‘centomila voci che ai fatto’ nnamorà
Roma Roma bella t’ho dipinta io, gialla come er sole rossa come er core mio
Roma Roma mia nun te fà ‘ncantà tu sei nata grande e grande hai da rest
Roma Roma Roma core de ’sta città unico grande amore de tanta e tanta gente che ai fatto’ nnamorà

Lazio is the other big club in city, the immense rival of Rome. The city is truly separated between the two clubs.

The club was founded in 1900 and is the oldest in the city. He won two national titles and ended second 5 times. Winner of the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1999.
The supporters of the club are loving about their team but at the moment the young Romans look like more oriented towards the Roma with players born in Rome and which are idols as Fransesco o Totti Daniele de Rossi.

Note that the two clubs share the same arena: el stadio Olympico which will be the subject of my next article!
