Italy's ultras are the most organised and violent fans in European football. Many groups have evolved into criminal gangs, involved in ticket-touting, drug-dealing and murder. A cross between the Hells Angels and hooligans, they're often the foot-soldiers of the Mafia and have been instrumental in the rise of the far-right.

As his life hung in the balance, his days in hospital, drifting in and out of consciousness, were nightmare moments but ones that would define him.
