Poi da l\u00ec \u00e8 partito un gioco di interscambi, passaggi di prima, colpi di tacco, tunnel, e da l\u00ec si \u00e8 acceso lo stadio. Quando ho ripassato la palla a Gaetano sono andato ad occupare lo spazio pensando come potesse arrivarmi la palla. Dopo che l&#8217;ho controllata avevo gi\u00e0 in mente di calciare. Non pensavo potesse uscire un gol del genere, dal campo non lo realizzi, ma, quando ho impattato la palla, ho sentito l&#8217;istinto di esultare e mi sono detto &#8216;se prendo la porta \u00e8 gol&#8217;. Sono quei tiri perfetti che entrano. Il merito \u00e8 un 50% a testa tra me e la squadra. La parte del gioco \u00e8 del collettivo, mentre la finalizzazione \u00e8 del singolo: sono in un contesto di fiducia nei compagni, nella loro seriet\u00e0, che mi mette nelle condizioni di star sereno in campo e arrivare a concludere nel miglior modo possibile. Quando \u00e8 uscita la candidatura abbiamo riguardato il gol e abbiamo pensato: &#8216;Addirittura candidati al Pusk\u00e1s? Vuol dire che ci hanno visto proprio qualcosa di bello\u201d.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>A SPECIAL DEDICATION<\/strong><br\/>&#8220;Quando ho saputo della candidatura ero con mia moglie e le mie figlie: mi sono un attimo assentato e ho sentito internamente una sensazione che non so nemmeno spiegare. Un brivido per tutto il corpo, che continuo a sentire mentre faccio quest&#8217;intervista. Ho fatto vedere il gol alle mie due figlie, mi hanno chiesto &#8216;pap\u00e0 lo hai fatto tu&#8217;? &#8216;S\u00ec amore&#8217;, ho risposto, &#8216;adesso pap\u00e0 \u00e8 in lista per vincere un premio (il Premio Pusk\u00e1s FIFA 2025, ndr.)&#8217;. Mi hanno chiesto di portarglielo se lo vincer\u00f2, speriamo. Sono contento perch\u00e9 premi come questo sono obiettivi che un giocatore si pone sempre: la candidatura porta felicit\u00e0 e sono contento per la visibilit\u00e0 che d\u00e0 a me, alla societ\u00e0, oltre che alla nostra terra, la Sardegna&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>BELIEVING IN YOUR WORK<\/strong><br\/>\u201cWhat would I say now to little Alessandro Deiola, who started playing for Cagliari as a kid and would one day be nominated for the FIFA Pusk\u00e1s Award? I\u2019d tell him to do everything he\u2019s done all over again. I don\u2019t have any regrets about anything. Not even the mistakes I\u2019ve made along the way or the loan spells in my younger days that frustrated me back then. Leaving Cagliari to play on loan at other clubs really helped shape me and taught me a lot. I firmly believe it helped me come on leaps and bounds both as a footballer and a person. I\u2019d pass on all the help and guidance I\u2019ve received over the years to my younger self and tell him to embrace every hardship that helped him become the player he is today. <br\/>I grew up in Sardinia, at Cagliari, and I hung my very first team card from the club in my locker. I signed my first contract with them back in 2006. I wanted to become an icon for the club and wear the shirt with pride. Slowly but surely, I\u2019m achieving my dream, and now I\u2019ve been nominated for the Pusk\u00e1s Award. Obviously, it goes without saying that every player dreams of one day representing their country. Anything\u2019s possible if you truly believe it can happen&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>L\u2019intervista completa sul sito <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifa.com\/it\/the-best-fifa-football-awards\/2025\/articles\/deiola-vorrei-portare-il-premio-puskas-alle-mie-figlie\">FIFA.com<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifa.com\/it\/the-best-fifa-football-awards\/2025\/articles\/deiola-vorrei-portare-il-premio-puskas-alle-mie-figlie\">QUI<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><em>The full interview is available on FIFA.com (here)<br\/>Included by FIFA among a shortlist of eleven nominees for the Award, Deiola\u2019s goal is the only one representing Italy.
