He bought a map of Italy to find out where Udine was. He stayed in Italy until 2006, played in defence and midfield, won two UEFA Cups with Parma and a Scudetto with Lazio. Roberto Sensini turns 60 today. Sensini came to Udinese from Newell's Old Boys in 1989. He has said he did not know where Udine was and bought a map of Italy to find out where he was heading. In November 1993 he moved to Parma, who had just won the Cup Winners' Cup. That season he won the European Super Cup with them, then the UEFA Cup in 1995, a Coppa Italia and another UEFA Cup in 1999. In June 1999 he joined Lazio and walked into a dressing room full of super stars like Alessandro Nesta, Roberto Mancini, Marcelo Salas, Diego Simeone and Pavel Nedved. Manager Eriksson wanted someone who could be moved around and read the game, and picked Sensini for that role. On 14 May 2000, the last day of the season, Lazio were two points behind Juventus. They beat Reggina at the Olimpico and then had to wait. Juventus were away at Perugia, and Pierluigi Collina stopped that match at 0-0 because of heavy rain. It restarted after more than an hour, and Alessandro Calori scored in the 49th minute. Perugia won 1-0 and Lazio were champions. Sensini says he suffered more waiting for that match than playing in his entire career. He promised Calori a dinner to thank him. In September 2025, 25 years later, it still didn't happen. He went back to Parma in October 2000 in a swap for Dino Baggio. He won another Coppa Italia in 2002, then returned to Udinese for the last four seasons of his career. Buon compleanno, "Nonno" Sensini.
