Football is sacred and Maradona is its prophet. In Naples they think so. It may seem excessive and paradoxical in the eyes of a foreigner, but the Neapolitans have made football an unconscious, almost surreal expedient, to escape the grip of an existence marked by difficulties. "Naples, 3" tells the riot of joy and colors on the occasion of the third Scudetto of Naples arrived this year at the end of a triumphal season and that has seen an entire city turned into light blue, in an atmosphere in which the sacred is no longer distinguished from the profane. Because Naples is also this.
