A football match in the name of brotherhood. This is the idea behind the Interreligious Match for Peace, the friendly challenge wanted by Pope Francis in collaboration with the Pupi Foundation (created by the former Inter captain Javier Zanetti) and Scholas Occurentes, to which the proceeds from the proceeds, and primarily sponsored by Pirelli.
The match will be played on September 20st at 45 pm in Rome and will see two teams of Italian and international stars representing different cultures and religions face each other, to convey a message of brotherhood. The two teams will be led by Argentina coach Tata Martino and Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger. The match will be televised by the Rai networks.
There are also many collateral initiatives desired by the main sponsor Pirelli, which will auction off a P Zero Grand Prix tire signed by the players of the two teams who will take to the field and by all the Formula 1 drivers, to donate the proceeds to the Foundations " Scholas Occurrentes” and “PUPI Foundation”.
Furthermore, Pirelli, through PZero, has finally created a limited edition T-shirt that shows the word "Pace" in the main languages of the world. Also in this case the proceeds from the sales will be entirely donated to the “Scholas Occurrentes” and “Fondazione PUPI” foundations.
