Ciao Beppe. This is a sad day indeed not only for Juventus fans but fans of calcio. I was 15 years old and remember his break out in World Cup 1990 when it was in Italy and mamma Mia what performance he had! He wasn't the best or the most graceful but his determination and heart set him apart from any other player. He came off the bench and changed that Azzurri team for the rest of that World Cup!! One of my favorites. RIP Toto.
A testament to the fact that sports can be unifying for people, give us joy and also provide a distraction for folks whose lives are otherwise difficult.
Thank you for making this video, Beppe. For a generation of Italians and Italian Americans, Toto was our idol and the reason that many of us fell in love calico, the nazionale, and Juventus. Too young, too soon. riposa in pace, Toto.
Grande Toto, one of the first football memories i have is watching from my hometown livingroom with my father the amazing world cup you did. Grazie per tutto, sarai sempre un grande UNO DI NOI .
This news made me so sad Beppe. Toto made the Juventini and Azzurri of our generation dream! He reminds me of my childhood. Thoughts and prayers go to his family. RIP ❤
I never got to experience watching Toto, but I always heard about him when I started following calcio in the late 90s. That is a clear sign he had something special that history will not forget easily, if at all. RIP Toto My condolences to his family, his fans, and all who love football.
Ciao Beppe, thanks for this video chapter, it reminds us old Juventini about our history and our legends. I cried on this video, godbye TOTO and thankyou Beppe.
I never saw him play because I was very very young (probably wasn't even born) but one of the Juventus legends, so it's very sad. Previous generation, this generation and the next one should look back at what Schillaci had done to this club and to every Juventino. He once came to my country and visit the fan club. and it was very nice. Grazie mille Toto
Perfect video, great explanation who he really was. It´s nice to see you speaking about your start to be a football fan, this video gave me a lot of emotions, thanks Beppe.
Thank you Giuseppe. Aged 9 years, World Cup 1990 was my first football tournament I watched conciously, and Toto became my first favourite football player, while I didn´t even know what Juventus was or that he played for us. Sliding on my knees as he scored a goal, these really were notti magiche. Ciao Toto 🥇
Never thought that a video of you would make me shed tears.... Our history as football supporters are so similar. With the difference that we [German family with back then 5 kids] were on holiday with a camper and a tent in Slovenia in 1990 and we kids would hang around one other camper's place who watched the WC on his TV. Needless to say that we as Germans enjoyed this tournament until the very end, but apart from a few German players, the national team I fell in love with was Italy. First the anthem (until today I think it's the greatest anthem of the world), then the mentality of the players, then the celebrations you mentioned... Ever since my football heart is divided between my country of origin and Italy. My time with Juve started much later (around 2000) and was actually first meant to be a joke and to provoke my Napoli friends. But after two matches I had fallen for the old Lady 🤍🖤. And it's forever. My sympathy to the family and friends of Toto 😢
Totò's beautiful goals during the "notti magiche" had a profound impact on Italian unity. At a time when the Lega Nord was sowing seeds of division between northern and southern Italians (Terroni), Totò, a southern Italian, emerged as a unifying force. The entire Italian national team consisted of northern Italian players at that time. Totò's appearance and goals transcended regional boundaries and united the nation. We are grateful for your contribution, Totò. Rest in peace.
Grazie Toto you’ll live in our hearts and minds forever. Rip in peace legend ❤
One of the greats dies on my birthday.
RIP TOTO
Started supporting Italy coz of him RIP 💔

RIP Toto Schillaci
59 is so young to die of pneumonia, especially for someone who used to be a top level athlete. So sad.
Kids on the streets in the early 90s would shout Schillaci after scoring a goal.
Really sad. He made Italia '90 his own.
Im so happy for mckennie.
Arrivederci Toto o7
