The Napoli football (soccer) team in a postponed match last night payed tribute to the late Marco Simoncelli.
Aurelio De Laurentiis, the president of the team invited Simoncelli’s parents, Paolo and Rossella and team manager Fausto Gresini to watch the team play against Bologna at the S.
Paolo Stadium in Naples.
Before the start of the match, the team gave Simoncelli’s parents their official footbal jersey emblazoned with Simoncelli’s name and #58 on it which was signed by all the players and the gesture was met with a standing ovation by the attending public.
