At the Stadio San Nicola, 56,000 fans filled the stands to celebrate the National Team’s return to Bari for the first time in over seven years.

During the pre-match build-up, there was a spectacular light show where the musical brand theme of the National Teams (composed and produced by Enrico Giaretta and Maurizio D’Aniello) reverberated around the stadium.

The two teams then stepped out to a breathtaking tifo which was created thanks to the contribution of adidas, the technical partner of the National Teams. Blue cards in the two Curva stands were accompanied by white, green and red cards in the Tribuna, thus forming the Italian flag.
