"The excellent Losi urges the Giallorossi fans to... calm down during the tense return match against Chelsea, valid for the Coppa Città delle Fiere (October 6, 1965 at the Stadio Flaminio). But nothing serious happened: the English player on the ground had merely been hit by a wet paper ball and had thought it appropriate to make a bit of a splash. The paper ball, well rounded, is clearly visible in Tomasin's hand."

@Valerie as far as I know a cap is usually only awarded for the first game. However, for those who have played 100 or more caps they receive a special cap for their 100th game. If wrong, can someone correct me.
