Among the various sports TV stations in Italy, Italian Football Sports Channel 3 has gradually become one of the most popular sports TV stations in Italy in the past two years. On the one hand, the management is professional enough, and on the other hand, they have hired many professionals to serve. Many channels are very hard-boxed.
As one of the TV stations that broadcast Serie A and European events, Sports 3 is also deeply loved by fans.
Last season saw the departure of several station veterans, and the rapid rise of newcomers made the station even more popular.
In particular, their new football commentary team attracted a lot of attention last season. Their commentary is not only highly professional, but also extremely interesting. Many fans love and hate it, and the commentary is full of explosions.
Di Livio, one of the two commentators, is a legend in Italian football.
The 41-year-old was once a famous Italian football star and played for many football clubs during his career.
In his career, he has won countless honors - Serie A championship, Champions League championship, these trophies filled the room.
However, while moving around various teams, he suffered endless abandonment and injury, which made him suffer and have his dreams shattered.
1985 was the year when Di Livio’s dream was shattered.
As a child born in Rome who loves football, he joined his hometown team at a very young age and represented Rome's youth teams at all levels. But later, he was sent to Serie C by Roma to kill time. No matter how hard he tried, the club did not give him the slightest chance.
As a Roma youth player, it is even more impossible for him to join Lazio. The teenage boy spent the best part of his football career in the lower leagues.
And in the summer of 1993, he was unexpectedly hit by a pie falling from the sky - Serie A hegemon Juventus threw an olive branch to him!
No young man in the lower leagues would be able to refuse such an opportunity. At that time, Juventus had not won the league title for 7 years and was at a trough. Di Livio came to Juventus from the second division team Padua. Lingcheng started a legendary career.
By the way, there was another person who joined Juventus from Padua with him-Del Piero.
This young genius who was eight years older than him was his best friend in life.
Di Livio's favorite is Trapattoni. Under the leadership of the old coach, Di Livio, a late bloomer, wears the No. 7 jersey representing the main players at Juventus. He is in great form and has played for Juventus for 6 years. 187 Serie A appearances, won 1 European Champions Cup, 1 Toyota Cup, 3 Serie A titles, 1 Coppa Italia, 1 European Super Cup and 2 Italian Super Cups.
At the end of his career, Di Livio followed in the footsteps of his mentor Trapattoni and moved to Florence. When Florence fell into financial quagmire and fell into Serie B, Di Livio, who had become the team captain, did not hesitate. He resolutely renewed his contract with Florence, creating a story of loyalty.
Until the end of the 0304 season, the old captain of Florence finally led the team to fight all the way and finally reached Serie A. Finally retired honorably at the end of the 0405 season. During his career at the club, he was regarded as a legend by both Juventus and Fiorentina, and his status is evident.
During his national team career, Di Livio represented the team in many international competitions, played in the 1996 and 2000 European Cups, and also participated in the 1998 and 2002 World Cups. In the 2002 World Cup, he was 36 years old. The footage of Dilivio pointing at the black whistle Moreno's nose and angrily cursing made fans around the world extremely moved.
After retiring, he tried many things and finally joined Italian Football Sports Channel 3 last season to become a professional football commentator.
Di Livio's commentary partner is also the famous Italian football star Christian Vieri.
If Di Livio is a loyalist of Italian football? Then Vieri is a well-known prodigal son of Italian football.
During his career, Vieri played in many clubs and in the game world.
Despite this, his strong, tank-like build puts him among the best forwards in the world.
Among all the clubs he played for, Inter Milan stayed the longest.
In August 1999, Vieri moved from Lazio to Inter Milan. The transfer fee of US$50 million set a new record for international football transfer fees. And his golden partnership with Ronaldo has become a symbol of the times.
During his career with the Italian national team, he was also the absolute main forward of the national team.
It has to be said that Sports 3 has a unique vision and invited these two former Serie A stars to commentate on the game, which made countless fans excited.
Di Livio's professionalism and calmness, and Vieri's domineering and uninhibited nature, made this golden pair quickly become popular.
Whenever they commentate on the Rome Derby, the two people's commentary styles for their respective sides sparkle.
In the Italian national derby between Juventus and Inter Milan, the two had constant conflicts and often created topics.
On the evening of August 30, 2010, the last few games of the first round of Serie A were played at the same time, and Di Livio and Vieri were responsible for commentating on the home game between Juventus and Udinese.
Before the game started, the two chatted about the game that ended yesterday. Vieri boasted about Inter Milan and talked excitedly about yesterday's game.
"Inter Milan will definitely win all the championships this season, I guarantee it!"
Di Livio said calmly: "You said the same thing at this time last year."
Vieri: "But didn't Inter become the Serie A double champions in the end?"
Di Livio: "But we lost in the Champions League final."
"It was just an accident, not a matter of strength!" Vieri was a little depressed when he was criticized by Di Livio. "We all watched yesterday's game and how well Inter Milan performed! Mourinho will definitely stay in office this season. This is Inter Milan’s greatest luck! Do you dare to say that Inter Milan’s players did not perform well?”
Although they are mortal enemies, Di Livio still nodded honestly: "Inter Milan players have indeed performed well this season, especially the forwards, Adriano, Eto'o and Diego Milito. The three of them are in great form. Top-notch striker combination.”
Vieri was in a good mood: "I am very satisfied to receive your praise. I am very optimistic about the three of them. They are definitely the strongest front three in Europe this season."
Dilivio smiled slightly: "The strongest? It should be one of the strongest."
Vieri: "Who do you think is better than them?"
Di Livio: "The combination of Del Piero, Raul and Trezeguet is the strongest front three in Europe, bar none."
Vieri: "Man, you have to piss me off today..."
Di Livio: "The sworn enemy of El Clasico is a lifelong enemy and cannot be changed."
Vieri: "Okay, you have it..."
