Don’t let anyone tell you that fairy tales are not real, because tonight in the small Italian town of Carpi one most certainly came true.
15 years after going out of business and having to start again in the local amateur leagues, Carpi Fc have reached the promised land of Serie A. After 106 years of trying the Biancorossi will finally play in the top flight of the Italian game.
Having lead Serie B pretty much from start to finish, Carpi went into tonight’s match at home to Bari knowing that any sort of positive result, coupled with the failure of Vicenza to win would see promotion secured.
That is what duly happened as Carpi secured a nil-nil draw whilst Vicenza went down to Brescia. It’s hard not to overstate how much of an achievement this is by a club who play at a stadium that holds little over 4000 people.
One thing though is not hard to imagine, the 2015/16 season is set to be a truly special one for Carpi Fc
