Mondiali di calcio 1982, 40 anni dalla vittoria dell'Italia
C'è un'intera generazione, quella di chi adesso ha più o meno 50 anni, che si ricorda perfettamente dov'era, con chi era e come ha festeggiato nella magica notte dell'11 luglio 1982. Basta una data La data. 11 luglio 1982, Madrid, Stadio Santiago Bernabeu: sul tabellone c'è scritto Italia-Germania Ovest 3-1, in tribuna il Presidente Sandro Pertini non riesce a trattenere la gioia, agita la pipa festoso perché l'Italia è campione del Mondo.
Il ricordo di Dino Zoff
Rossi-Tardelli-Altobelli, una filastrocca ripetuta all'infinito per ricordare i tre gol che misero al tappeto la Germania Ovest (eh sì, perché allora andava specificato!), punto d'arrivo di una salita dura e lunghissima, iniziata tra le polemiche e finita in gloria: «Il primo pensiero è che sono passati 40 anni!», racconta Dino Zoff a GQ, «Poi magari non sembra così perché se ne parla sempre, è stato un fatto eccezionale e parlandone così spesso sembra più vicino».
Perché la vittoria dell'82 è stata speciale proprio per questo, metafora di vita di chi ha combattuto contro tutto e tutti e ce l'ha fatta grazie alla forza del gruppo. Un gruppo unito che si è fatto impermeabile, decidendo il clamoroso silenzio stampa per le critiche ricevute ancora prima di partire per la Spagna. Nessuno credeva in loro, loro credevano in se stessi, e tanto bastava per cementare quello spirito che ha portato gli azzurri sul tetto del mondo: «I problemi erano legati al fatto che i media erano contrarissimi e molto negativi nei nostri confronti», ci ha detto Zoff, «Da lì nacque l'idea del silenzio stampa perché era inutile cercare di difenderci o ribattere, ci siamo detti facciamo quello che siamo capaci di fare e poi vediamo».
Bearzot, Pertini e la partita a scopone
«La prima immagine che conservo è quella della coppa, con Bearzot e i compagni di squadra», ricorda Zoff, allora attorniato dai compagni mentre stringeva tra le sue manone la Coppa del Mondo appena conquistata. In alcune foto lo si vede persino sorridente, lui sempre schivo, misurato e di poche parole. Ma quell'impresa fu troppo grande per tutti («Lo sport regala queste felicità forti e violente»), il coronamento di un sogno che in pochi avevano creduto possibile. Non il CT Bearzot, il padre di quel gruppo, amico e sergente di ferro quando serviva, l'uomo che per Zoff resta il grande protagonista di quella meravigliosa impresa: «Il personaggio chiave per quella vittoria fu lui, la persona più importante, solo Bearzot poteva portare a termine alla grande un campionato del Mondo in quelle situazioni. Era una persona competente e coraggiosa, un comandante vero».
Difese la sua squadra dalle critiche, si mise l'elmetto dopo i tre pareggi nel primo girone, con l'Italia salva soltanto grazie alla differenza reti. Mise le basi per la vittoria finale, passando per i successi contro Argentina e Brasile, il famoso 3-2 con la tripletta di Paolo Rossi: «Ma la partita della svolta fu contro l'Argentina, una grande partita, molto dura, fisica, quella fu la vera rampa di lancio», ci spiega Zoff. La finale fu il coronamento di un percorso, la festa nelle strade e nelle piazze d'Italia qualcosa che chi c'era ricorda come fosse ieri.
E poi quella fotografia eterna, con il Presidente Pertini, Bearzot, Causio e Zoff che giocano a carte sull'aereo presidenziale che riportava gli azzurri a casa. Una partita a scopone per ingannare il viaggio, improvvisata al momento, carte in mano (a quei tempi erano il passatempo preferito nei ritiri delle squadre, specialmente tra i giocatori che dormivano poco perché sentivano la tensione alla vigilia delle partite) e la coppa accanto a loro sul tavolo: «Quella cosa non fu programmata, adesso gli uffici stampa dovrebbero lavorare un mese per fare una cosa del genere, e fu per merito del presidente Pertini. Io e lui eravamo in coppia in quella partita, e perdemmo. Non capì la giocata avversaria e sbagliò a scartare facendo vincere Causio e Bearzot». Ma nessuno gli disse nulla, in fondo era pur sempre il Presidente della Repubblica!
E anche per i protagonisti di quell'11 luglio 1982 il ricordo resta indelebile, bello e doloroso pensando a chi non c'è più (Enzo Bearzot, Gaetano Scirea e Paolo Rossi), ma che farà sempre e comunque parte di quel gruppo: «Quando si fanno certe e battaglie e certe imprese è normale si crei un legame tanto forte e duraturo nel tempo», commenta Zoff.
Perché certe vittorie sono per sempre. (Francesco Bonfanti - GQ Italia)

Today's fun in the Candle household
Went on a nice walk to brunch with my dad.
Topic of conversation - who my Dad thinks was the favourite and who actually won each men's football world cup since 1966
The things about football this man remembers truly astounds me on a regular basis. In an hour long walk he ran through every world cup since 1966, who hosted, who was the favourite, who won, his opinion on the tournament and any major controversies
Did I need to know that Brazil and France should have been the final in the 1982 World Cup? No. But I do know now.
#apparently the only tournament where the favourite team won was France 1998#source: my dad#football#personal stuff#if you want to know more about the controversy surrounding why France were not in the 1982 final#google 1982 world cup Schumacher tackle#it's a doozy

Prongsfoot Bingo: Quidditch
It started with a promise in September of 1978.
“It sucks that we couldn’t go to the World Cup together. In 1982 let’s go. You and me, together. We’ll sit in the best seats.”
Walburga and Orion Black never would have allowed Sirius to watch the World Cup with the Potters, so they’d watched from different sides of the stadium. But by 1982, they figured, everything would be different.
Sirius wouldn’t be under the thumb of his parents and he could sit wherever he wished. He and James would probably be living in a two-bedroom flat somewhere in London, so they could even apparate to the match together. They’d probably get some nice tents to set up the night before so that they could fully appreciate the festivities.
But they shouldn’t have expected that any of it would play out that way.
Because of course James Potter was scouted by a professional quidditch team and asked to play on the team. And of course Sirius had pursued a course of study in sports medicine so that he could work for the team as a trainer.
Why would they have assumed anything less?
Oh, and one more thing. That flat that they had been planning to share? It only had one bedroom. Of the many things they hadn’t known in 1978, the least surprising of all to everyone was that these two - who couldn’t live without each other for more than a few minutes at a time - would end up together. It was just fitting.
So their seats for the quidditch world cup? Yeah. As good as it gets.

Play Like A Girl!
Women's Soccer in the United States ⚽⚽⚽
From its early days, the story of women's soccer is one of resilience, determination, and sheer love for the game.
The first recorded women's soccer match in the U.S. took place way back in 1922, featuring the Dick, Kerr's Ladies of England and a local amateur St. Louis team. While this historic match sparked interest, the sport didn't really take off until the 1970s.
A game-changer was the passing of Title IX in 1972, a federal law that said "no way" to sex-based discrimination in schools. This opened the door for more opportunities in sports, including women's soccer.
The first NCAA Women's Soccer Championship took place in 1982, further legitimizing the sport at the collegiate level.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Women's National Team (USWNT) was formed in 1985, making their international debut at the Mundialito tournament in Italy that same year.
The team's success in the 1991 Women's World Cup, where they emerged as champions, marked a turning point in the popularity and recognition of women's soccer in the United States.
In 1999, the United States hosted the World Cup. The USWNT captured the hearts of fans everywhere with their nail-biting victory against China in a penalty shootout. Who can forget Brandi Chastain's iconic celebration after scoring the winning goal? That moment became a symbol of the growth and success of women's soccer–and women athletes–in the United States.
Fast forward to 2013, when the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) was created as the go-to professional league for women's soccer in the U.S. Today, the NWSL and USWNT continue to make waves in the sport, with the national team winning multiple Olympic gold medals and World Cup titles. So get out there, and Play Like a Girl!

He passed the SAS Selection Course in 1990 and served around the world with the SAS for most of the following 15 years in the Gulf, South America, Africa and the Balkans. Carleton-Smith was Commanding Officer of 22 SAS Regiment after 9/11 and commanded all Special Forces operations in Iraq, Yemen and Afghanistan.
He subsequently assumed command of 16 Air Assault Brigade, the Army’s high readiness parachute intervention force which culminated in his command of all British Forces in Afghanistan during one of the war’s most intense periods.
Promoted to Major General as Director of Special Forces, he commanded all the United Kingdom’s Special Forces for 3 years which included implementing the strategy to defeat ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
Prior to taking up the post of Chief of the General Staff, the professional Head of the British Army in 2018, he was Defence’s Director of Military Strategy and Operations which included directing the UK response to Russia’s invasion of Crimea and military support to Ukraine.

On this day, 4 December 2011, Brazilian footballer, medical doctor and activist Sócrates died in São Paulo aged 57. Widely considered to be one of the greatest midfielders of all time, he scored 22 goals for the Brazilian national team, captaining the side during the 1982 world cup. While playing for Corinthians, Sócrates helped organise Corinthians' Democracy: both a body through which the players collectively took control of management of the team, and also a powerful protest against the right-wing military dictatorship governing Brazil. Sócrates later gave the regime an ultimatum, saying he would go to play in Italy if they refused to hold elections. They did not pass a proposed constitutional amendment granting elections, so he moved to Fiorentina. When he arrived he was asked which Italian player he respected most, Rivera or Mazzola. He replied "Never heard of them. I'm here to read Gramsci in the original language and to study the history of the Italian working class." Antonio Gramsci was a prominent Italian Marxist who died in captivity under Mussolini's dictatorship. On the day of Sócrates' death, Corinthians had a match against Palmeiras, and before kick-off, the team marked his passing with Sócrates' classic celebration: a raised fist. They held out to a 0-0 draw, winning them one point which ensured their victory in the Campeonato Brasileiro for the first time in 6 years.

Charles "Bomber" Hicks (1910-1982). One of the first Piston Cup racers ever, and definitely one of the racers of all time. So named because of the way he used to throw moonshine molotovs out of the window to slow down the cops.
He may not have been one of the best racers ever, winning two Piston Cups, but he was definitely one of the most memorable, thanks to his reckless driving and charismatic personality - not to mention his habit of having a new woman on his arm every few months.
When one of the women (June Pepper/Hicks, 1913-1991) fell pregnant, he (surprisingly to most) did the responsible thing and married her to help raise their child.
Kevin Hicks (1941-2003) followed in his father's footsteps and became a Piston Cup racer. Just like his father, he was aggressive on the track, also achieving two Cups in his career.
His wife Joanne (1945-1974) was a reckless spark of a woman, often chasing the thrill of danger, which may be what led her to Kevin in the first place. They had two children (Charles and Kristine) but unfortunately she passed in a Road Traffic Accident when her son was 5 and her daughter only 2.
Charles "Chick" Hicks (1969-present) also followed the legacy his father and grandfather had built, though somewhat more unwillingly. His father pushed him hard into the world of racing, projecting his own failed dreams of winning more Piston Cups than his own father onto his son.
Pressured to dedicate all of his focus onto the sport with little time for much else, Chick never married, though despite that, he still only received one Piston Cup before retirement. He went on to host a racing news show named 'Chick's Picks with Chick Hicks'. It has become one of the highest rated shows of its niche, despite (or perhaps because of) Chick's jaded and sarcastic personality.
(Thanks to @cars-and-planes-dork for helping inspire me to actually write all this out!)
