This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇮🇹 here. Historic achievement for Bologna, which wins the Coppa Italia after 51 years, the third (out of three finals) in its history. The leader of this triumph is Vincenzo Italiano, a magnificent (and underrated) coach who crafted a masterpiece when no one could have imagined this journey in the summer. The former coach of Spezia wins his first final at the highest level after having won in Serie D, Serie C, and Serie B. A redemption following the 3 finals lost with Fiorentina (2 in the Conference League, 1 in the Coppa Italia). Vincenzo Italiano was carried in triumph by both his staff and the team. A true leader celebrated by his players. For Italiano, a huge moment, the pinnacle of a career destined to shine. Iconic is his image under the Curva Nord filled with 30,000 Bolognese fans. Uncontainable joy before the dedication. In fact, speaking to Mediaset, Vincenzo Italiano enthusiastically commented on the victory before making a dedication. "I dedicate this victory to Joe Barone's family: his son called me this morning, and I dedicate the triumph to the whole family. With Joe, we came close to winning several cups, and this one is for him." Here are his complete words. Photo credit: Lega Serie A
