I must admit, I'm not interested in national teams matches. I've always considered them as a waste of time because I can only have one favourite team in my life, not two of them. Watching a match is something passional, it's something erotical and when I see a group of players with a blue t-shirt I can only play make believe they should have some black rows on them.It's hard to explain so I'm going to imagine a discussion with a friend of mine.
H- So, what time will you have the match on Sunday?
M- No match on Sunday. I have a week off.
H- Really? Why? Is the championship finished?
M- No, it's the time for national teams. You know, that moment thought only for players that could earn more money if they played well or for nationalists that only love things made in their own country or for casual supporters that didn't know the number of players in the field but they blame you because, come on, you can't miss these matches.
H- Well, I'm surprised. You're a soccer fan and you should love the soccer as a game and not only your team!
M- Would you have sex with a person of your own gender? Somebody can, of course, and I don't blame them as I don't blame who watch his team and the national one as well. But you can fall in love with only one person a time. This is what really happens. National team matches are like the ones of our Rugby team: only few really understand it but when Italy plays the stadiums are always full.
H- It sounds crazy but logical. Anyway, this means we'll go to the theater on Saturday night, won't we?
M- Which play?
H- There is a modern version of 'Pride and Pregiudice' with many dancers...
M- Oh, what a pity! I'm sorry about that but I need to watch the match...
H- What? You said you're not interested, didn't you?
M- Right, but I must be up-to-date and then I must support against...
Call me crazy but I only love one team: Fc Internazionale Milano. The rest is worthless.
