Former Lazio Coach, Sven-Göran Eriksson, Receives Messages of Support Amidst Cancer Battle

They crossed Europe with a chilling video message. Sven-Göran Eriksson, when he heard the doorbell ring, did not think that on the other side of the door there were the Hyenas, a historic Mediaset program, visiting from Italy. The correspondents of the Italia Uno program went to visit the Swedish coach following the touching confession that moved the sports world, those about his health condition. Eriksson, in recent days, had indeed said he was sick: «Everyone sees that I have a disease that is not good, and everyone assumes that it is cancer, and it is. But I have to fight it as long as possible. I know that in the best case I have about a year, in the worst case even less». In a few hours, thousands of encouragement messages arrived for the coach who won the championship with Lazio in 2000. And that Lazio, thanks to the Hyenas, wanted to send a message to the leader of that extraordinary sporting feat. Guided by the author Alessandra Frigo, the Hyenas collected the video messages of some of the players, and not only, who in that year managed to achieve an unforgettable feat. It was they, this time, who encouraged their coach for a much more important challenge.
