The Women’s World Cup has started but nobody noticed

For once I envy you. The other day I struggled to find on the homepages of Italian sports magazines the news about the Women’s World Cup which, funny as a neighborhood blackout while you’re in the shower, started on Thursday. While the Guardian gives the Women’s World Cup the same space that Tuttosport gives to Juventus, the news of the women’s victories in Australia and New Zealand on Thursday on gazzetta.it came after the fake transfer market newsthe cards of the new amazing signings of Juve, Inter and Milan, after the essential chronicles of the summer friendlies, after Formula 1, the Tour de France, even after the 500 stolen from Christian De Sica, the Gazzaquiz, the advice of Fantasy football, the news of the change of ownership of Reggina, the brawl on the beach of La Maddalena over a rubber dinghy too close to the shore (section “Gazza motori”, I swear), even after the historical anecdote about a “pederast” kicked out by the fascists in Juve in the thirties.
