The Frecciarossa Italian Cup final, to be played between Atalanta and Juventus, will have an important implication in terms of inclusivity and accessibility: the match, scheduled for Wednesday evening (21.00) at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, will also be accessible to some blind, visually impaired and visually multi-disabled fans, involved by the UICI (Italian Union of the Blind and Visually Impaired), Rome section.

È with the aims of breaking down the differences between people and making people live the sports experience directly at the stadium that the Lega Serie A has also decided to lean on “Connect Me Too”, the integrated audiodescription system that allows an interconnection, even inclusive, between the participants of any event, in this case football. The service, developed by CMT Translations, è fully digital and travels on the 4G (or 5G) network.

Specifically, “Connect Me Too” è is able to faithfully report to those who è are listening, through a hyper descriptive chronicle curated by a specially trained professional, not only what happens in the playing rectangle but also on the sidelines, on the bench, in the stands and among the fans. In practice, by recounting every single detail, it manages to cross any physical boundary creating total listener involvement.

To the fan who, invited through the UICI of Rome, will want to experience all the emotions that only the live experience can give è simply required the use of their smartphone and headphones/earphones.
