Yesterday the Livorno football team won 1-0 a decisive Tuscan derby against Empoli, in the second leg of the playoffs for a place in our First Division, the all-desired Serie A. People went crazy as usual, filling our streets with cars and scooters, waving flags with the club's colors. Please forgive my scarce enthusiasm for football (soccer) in general and my even scarcer love for the local team.

Strong image.
I have scarce love for football as well.
I like that image too.
Oh I'll excuse you since I hate soccer! But I love the lettering here, both the A and the 'coin' shop. The roundness contrasts nicely with the sharpness.
So there is a whole piazza for the letter and the team?
Hope the fans don't make TOO much craziness in your streets.
I absolutely share your scarce enthusiasm for football. It's a business I really don't care for. Cool shot!
Me too VP, soccer...eh no thanks :) hope the fans don't get too carried away.
Dina - The A was already there. The square takes its name from the villa of a Jewish merchant, Giuseppe Attias, demolished to make room for the new buildings.
I'm not so fan of football, but I love this composition!

Oh right. I studied your links now. The old villa of Giuseppe was beautiful.
I played soccer as a kid and will enjoy a game on tv every now and then.
Livorno ostatecznie uzupełniło stawkę 20 zespołów, który w sezonie 2013/14 występować będą w Serie A. W rozegranym wczoraj rewanżowym meczu barażowym Livorno pokonało 1 - 0 na swoim stadionie zespół Empoli. Gola na wagę awansu zdobył Paulinho.
!!!
congratulations. Now, you play with Juventus ;-)
