Dugout, The Story Behind: The Derby della Lanterna

There are few other city derbies that compare to the Derby della Lanterna. It’s a game that has the whole city of Genoa, from the sea to the mountains, on the edge of their seat for 90 minutes. The Samp support will adorn the south stand with their colours, the most beautiful in the world, and will be in full voice. With words alone, it is difficult to convey what the Genoa derby means. Dugout has produced the video below, taking us through the history of the match. Find out who has scored the most goals in the contest, how the first ever edition ended, and which side has come out on top in more derby matches.
