Cavese U17, Cafaro “hero” by chance: the Russo – Sport coach saved

by admin

If with the defeat suffered yesterday in Mascalucia by the same age of Catania, the Cavese Under 17 has practically jeopardized the possible qualification to the national stage, the biancoblu still win from the point of view of fairness and respect. In particular Gioacchino Cafaro, the nurse accompanying the biancoblu, yesterday at the Torre del Grifo field became a hero, and the coach of the Catanese Russo will be grateful to him. Said like this, it seems like one of those fairy tales that first get bad, but then have a happy ending, but it really happened.

The rossoazzurra team had gone under in the result just a few turns of hands from the ninetieth with an own goal that had led the Cavese Under 17 coached by Bovienzo, but then Catania took advantage of the few minutes that remained and reacted, scoring the equalizer first and then, in injury time, the 2-1 goal. At the end of the match, the same Catania Under 17 coach Orazio Russo (already a forward also in Serie A in Lecce and then in Catania itself) felt ill, collapsed on the ground after an illness, was struggling to breathe and the situation is immediately appeared serious.

At that point, without thinking, Cafaro intervened to help Russo, who was thus able to regain consciousness after a few minutes. Perhaps the tension of the race, crucial for the classification, and also the suffocating heat that reigns in Sicily these days, played a bad joke on the Etnean coach, but in the end the scare did not last long. After having fully recovered, the same coach Russo showed up in the Cavese locker room to thank Cafaro for the help he had given him and also congratulated the young eagle players for the good performance offered on the pitch.

«No, I don’t feel like a hero – commented Cafaro from the bus that last night was bringing the Cavese back to Campania – because I simply did my job. I always try to do it in the best possible way. Sometimes it can be done, but of course it always takes the help of someone “above us”. Since I have worked for many years in Reanimation, then I am quite familiar with the problem ».
