Sudtirol-Salernitana, enthusiasm for the Granata explodes again

It really took very little to rekindle the grenade flame. Salerno and its province, along with the many forced to leave this land to live, burn with passion for Salernitana and a relegation without appeal from Serie A was not enough to erase a relationship that, although it may seem blasphemous, is a faith to believe in both good and bad times.
In these hours over a thousand supporters of the Bersagliera are sportingly invading Bolzano to support their favorite team, playing at 7.30 pm against Sudtirol on the second day of the Serie B championship.
This is no small sign, as are the over seven thousand who have already purchased tickets for Tuesday night’s match at the Arechi between Salernitana and Sampdoria.
An affection that the words of Alessandra, one of the many Granata fans, express well: “Entering the stadium must always be a celebration and a great joy, it is a moment where the distances of age, social class, educational qualifications are shortened… The moment in which we are all equal, all together for one great goal: to support the team of our heart! From father to son, from mother to son, together for one great demonstration of pride and belonging! Forza vecchio cuore granata”.
Hugs to Sepe and his teammates, who represent the garnet colors this season, evidently the result not only of the comeback victory in the debut in the cadet division with Cittadella. Something much deeper, a sign of identity. So much so as to involve even those who live far from Salerno and have been supporters of Salernitana for a short time or only because of their young age.
Thus the little Alessia Santoro, “granata blood” but resident in Varese, yesterday morning with her captivating smile managed to involve even the granata coach Giovanni Martusciello. In fact Alessia wanted to say goodbye to her favorites, a few hours before leaving for Bolzano, leaving them a “good luck” for today’s match.
Then she chatted with mister Martusciello and the trainer, among other things, also told her that her brother also lives in Varese.
