The amateur footballer hit by cardiocirculatory arrest during the amateur match between Casalpoglio and Quingentole did not make it. Dimitri Roveri, 27, striker and captain of the Quingentole team, died a few hours after his admission to the San Raffaele hospital in Milan. Roveri collapsed trembling and never regained consciousness. He lived in Quingentole and was engaged: last week he announced to his family that he would become a father in September. He worked as a gardener and cleaner in a retirement home in Mantua.
Dimitri Roveri felt ill when there were 20 minutes left in the match, in an area away from the action. The first to rescue him was his sister Nicol, president of the team and authorized to use the defibrillator. But the boy’s conditions immediately appeared very serious. He died after ten in the evening in the hospital where he had arrived by helicopter, after being intubated. And despite a desperate surgery. He was a Milan fan and in the evening he should have gone to the stadium for the match against Verona, which was decisive for the Scudetto.
