Episode Notes
We finally head to Rome for a visit to Lazio! Found in 1900, the club has plenty of great stories and characters. We go way back to discuss heroes like Silvio Piola, who is the all-time leading scorer in Italian top league calcio. The 1974 Scudetto winning squad was a team of individuals that met an incredible amount of tragedy in the following years punctuated by the death of a player and the manager. Giorgio Chinaglia might be one of the most fascinating player's we have learned about during this entire project, a man that fought with everyone, including is NY Cosmos teammate, Pele!
