Salvatore “to” Schilac's, the assailant who lit the World of Italy 1990 with his exploits and donated the entire country to the memorable “Magic Nights”, was divided from life today at 59.
A few weeks later, at the Civic Hospital in Palermo, the health conditions of former strikers had deteriorated in recent hours. He had long struggled with colon cancer.
Schilucci, a talent that erupted in his home World, will remain forever connected with that memorable wine.
With his determination, speed, and ability to score, he became the symbol of a national who reached third place, winning the hearts of the Italians and not only.
His career, which began in the small leagues, made him wear Juventus and Inter fans, but right on national T-shirt he wrote the most beautiful pages of his history. Six goals in seven matches at the 90th World Cup and the title of best goal scorers are numbers that speak for themselves and that set it as one of the largest Italian attackers.
News of his breakup shocked the soccer world, which mourns a champion and a man of great heart.
Numerous messages of comfort have come from former teammates, trainers and fans, who will always remember him as the hero of the “Magic Nights”.
He left his wife Barbara and three children with Jessica, Mattia and Nicole.
