you call him Tonino. Tonino, game. Tonino shooting. And sometimes, when he plays particularly beautiful and shoots, call him Toninho. Antonio Marchesano has made a name for itself, it is to be seen in the Games and to hear in the Training. Tonino, Toninho. The name for his small Size and his great deeds. 1.67 m he was big, it means usually. “1,68”, he corrected, “but it’s not more, it depends.” It used to be different, they used to tell him that he was too small. Today, Marchesano regular player at the FCZ, a man of refined balls, and a source of creative moves. It was time, the man is 28. So Marchesano thinks. He says: “It is good to come.”

Marchesano is referred to as introverted, but when it runs it – and these days it runs, he comes out of himself. As the reporters after the game, no notes of his statements, he asks: “Why don’t you write down?” As a man responds to him, because he phrases anything except from the team thinking of giving up, he says: “That’s what you do in this Moment.”

Marchesano became a professional, on and off the pitch. This was to be expected – and yet, for a time, uncertain.

He was the jewel in the crown

Marchesano was the 18-year-old footballer , by which the whole of Ticino gushed. He has been called a “gem”, got, the, with, dreaming of the Serie A and ended up in the Challenge League. He says: “I have also had bad luck.” Others say: He was attracted to the bad luck. Marchesano joined in 2011 to Bellinzona and Bellinzona from rose before his arrival. Marchesano in 2013, signed a pre-contract with Sion and the coach was fired before his arrival. The new asked him: “Who are you?” He moved in the same year, according to Winterthur, and was for two years and is not happy. He moved to 2015, according to Biel and the Club went out in bankruptcy. He came in 2016 to the FCZ, and, of course, the Club was still prior to his arrival.

There was a time, when he said: stop dreaming Tonino, with 26 you have to have made the breakthrough, otherwise you’ve lost in professional football, nothing. There was the moment in Winterthur, as he thought, to look for a different profession, an ordinary, anything with the economy. And there is the Moment in which he says: “It is good as it is here.” This Moment is now. Marchesano has extended the FCZ of the contract, it is the ones in the midfield, him running it, the FCZ, it runs and it is not quite clear who is more for the happiness of the other jurisdiction. The son of an Italian construction worker from Reggio di Calabria has heard from his father in humility on the way. “If the FCZ is good, it helps me, too.”

“Now we have more self-confidence.”Antonio Marchesano

The reasons for the Zurich-based recovery are a thing. Marchesano told that I made a click, that it is not working now. What exactly is it? “We do everything together, we attack together. We have to defend.” Only, the have you can also make earlier. “It’s true,” says Marchesano, “but now we have more self-confidence.” And lucky on that one. At the beginning of the season of the FCZ has missed penalties and overpayments situations, it is not used, he got a goal in the last Minute in the Form of an insane case officer. Now, there are no low blows, and the FCZ goals, the absence of two months earlier to succeed. The FCZ is currently experiencing the good fortune to have no bad luck anymore. And Marchesano is similar, the Surprises are gone from his football life.

He has in the meantime ceased to dream the dreams of a 20-Year-old. Serie A and Juve, that was once. “As a 28-Year-old abroad, is simply not very realistic,” he says. Does he mean abroad, North America and Asia, in these regions there were offers, but he knew, there he does not want to work, not as a footballer, not as a father of a family. Marchesano says be aware of. Football is not a game to him, it is also become to work. Safety plays a role in financial aspects also. And he has found with this setting, a new dream. “I want to get with the FCZ a title.”

Now he is guarded

that’s Why he has changed. He no longer eats in the morning only milk and cereals, but cereals, bread, meat and fruit. He warms up prior to the training, aware of the muscles and focused and hours before the Games. There are Details, but in sum they make the new Marchesano. Immediately the life gehuschte luck provides him a new set of hurdles. Recently, against Xamax goalkeeper Matthias came after the game, Less on him, the two know each other from Winterthur. Minder told him that you had set your game specifically on it – Marchesano was guarded, the opponent accompanied him always on the way between the lines, between the defence and the midfield, his favourite place on the field. Marchesano was suffering, he managed a little – he’s still adjusting to the new life.

Marchesano is said to have a special feeling for the room. He thought and then told why that actually might be true. Because he was smaller, he had to be always faster than the opponent. He has identified a matter that he plays the Ball immediately. “I have to decide always. One or two touches,” he says. For this, he must see and feel, where his colleagues and enemies are, where they could be. In this Moment, he feels the room, and then he plays the Ball.
