"Udinese" club should be disappointed with their fans - in the Italian championship match away with Genoa's "Sampdoria", Udinese team was supported by... only one person. In the away stand with more than 4 thousand seats, there stood only Arrigo Brovedani. The 37-year-old admitted he didn't expect to see many fellow supporters, but he was shocked to realize he was completely alone. It's true, he also traveled almost 1 thousand kilometers between cities mainly for work, and took the opportunity to attend the match. For this loyalty, he was rewarded: Udinese forward Antonio Di Natale, upon hearing the chants supporting the team, invited Brovedani to warm up together, and after the match he was given a ticket to the next home game. Stadium workers treated the guest with coffee, "Sampdoria" officials gave him a jersey, and fans invited him to have a beer. In football-loving Italy, fans have trouble with strict security requirements and the need to obtain a document confirming the fan's identity. This is done to prevent incidents, which have previously resulted in casualties. Currently, the most popular national championship is in Germany - an average of 42,299 people watch each Bundesliga match. In second place is England's Premier League (35,629), followed by Spain's La Liga (29,665). Italy's result is only 21,876. Fan (photo by La Presse)"
