MILAN - The name Giacinto Facchetti means something different to all Inter fans.
Some remember his forays up that left flank, wearing his eternal No.3 jersey. Some start reciting that legendary line-up - Sarti, Burgnich, Facchetti, Bedin, Guarneri, Picchi... - and are instantly transported back to La Grande Inter's historic night in Vienna.
All Inter fans have a special memory of Giacinto. Ultimately, Giacinto represents Inter - he is the original Interista Dentro, an icon for us all.
As the man himself once said: 'There are days when being an Interista is easy, others when it's a duty and others still when it's an honour.' But Giacinto didn't just say it - he embodied this sentiment, in his values, his style, his choices.
Giacinto Facchetti is our past, our present and our future.
Happy birthday, Giacinto!
