Fabio Caressa

Fabio Caressa (born on April 18, 1967 in Rome) is a famous Italian journalist and football commentator, broadcasting for SKY Italia.

He began his career in 1986 and in 1991 was chosen to take part in the commentators team for the newly founded Italian pay tv Tele+, founded by the Canal+ Group. In 1998 he started commenting on Sunday evening Serie A matches, making turns with Massimo Marianella. In 2002 he became the main "voice" of SKY Sport and, together with former Inter Milan star Giuseppe Bergomi, he is now one of the most notorious and appreciated sporting commentators in Italy. With his mate he commented Italy matches in the 2006 FIFA World Cup. On the Internet can be found several videos of the 2006 World Cup football matches with Caressa's commentary.

After the World Cup he wrote a book about his experiences during his career and the World cup, entitled "Andiamo a Berlino" ("We're going to Berlin"), a phrase that Caressa shouted at the end of the World Cup semifinal Germany vs. Italy 0-2 a.e.t., just a few seconds after the goal scored by Alessandro Del Piero, expressing his joy for the qualification of Italy for the final that would be played in Berlin.

His wife is Italian TV-news journalist Benedetta Parodi: they have two daughters, Matilde and Eleonora.
