We shout “you missed”, “Go Jannik, you are a train” signs are raised with the word “Sinner I love you”, the “Ola” is staged and there is also a spectator who who knows why, repeatedly incites him with “go puppy” strokes. The central audience took to the field with Jannik Sinner, together with his parents, exceptionally in the stands, on the evening of his epic return against the poor Mariano Navone who also gets a “return to Buenos Aires” from a fan who perhaps made a wrong stage (at the Olympic in conjunction there is Lazio-Juventus) immediately silenced by the others: “It is an event with a historical flavor, according to that of the election of Leone.

After all, we made a gift. ” For the occasion they wear the shirts with the writing “Er Cavaliere Roscio is back”.

The “Olè Olè Olè Sinner, Sinner” are unleashed in the match point, envelop him after the victory and in the critical moments of the match. Not many, fortunately. The first meeting after three months of exile ends 6-3 6-4 for the number one in the world, in an hour and 38 of the game. Sinner is back writes “how beautiful” on the camera and a sign that appears in the stands makes the synthesis of the evening a little tennis and a little mystical: “Long live the American Pope, live the Italian tennis”.
