European Championships, Cristiana Girelli's euphoria the day after her double to Norway
Cristiana Girelli, the star of the women’s national soccer team and author of the goals that took Italy to the semifinals of the ongoing European Championships in Switzerland, relies on Jovanotti’s words to celebrate the Azzurri’s success.
“That we made a dream that we wanted together, that we did everything and everything there is to do. That we are still standing in the middle of this road. We are in the semifinals girls. The biggest show after the Big Bang is us.”
Cristiana Girelli, 35, made her debut in the women’s Serie A on Nov. 5, 2005, in the ranks of Bardolino Verona, and in the top flight since then she has made 409 appearances and scored 268 goals, winning 10 Scudetti, 9 Italian Cups and 11 Italian Super Cups distributed among Bardolino Verona, Brescia and Juventus.
