When a Serie A team scores a goal , it is communicated live ( until 2005 by the radio broadcast Tutto il calcio minute by minute , then by journalists in the studio ) ; in the background the scream of the fans and epic music is broadcast , followed ( when possible ) by the hymn of the team that scored ; since 1997 the new result of the match appears in the upper part of the screen and on both edges of the screen a flag with the social colors of the team that scored , radio commentators commenting on the action on the spot ( during the period of connection with Tutto football minute by minute ) and the minutes and names of the players who have scored their respective goals ; finally , in the center of the screen , the cheers of the players ( when possible ) and the fans are broadcast live . This graphic will change over the years . Furthermore , until 2009 , the Totocalcio ticket was shown at the interval and at the end of the matches . During the first eight years of the program , comedians of the caliber of Teo Teocoli , Anna Marchesini and lesser known but still appreciated characters alternated alongside the conductor , among which the Dutch astrologer Peter Van Wood , the Juventus fan from Africa , stood out . Idris , the Japanese designer Takahide Sano , often the journalist and TV presenter Luciano Rispoli , the pediatric primary and rowdy Sampdoria fan Renato Panconi , the Lazio nun Sister Paola , the journalist Paolo Brosio and the impassive-looking statistics expert Massimo Alfredo Giuseppe Maria Buscemi . During the first 4 years of broadcast there were also fixed connections from the stadiums , and in particular Everardo Dalla Noce - a former radio commentator and face of TG2 who for many years followed the economic page - who commented from the various stadiums in Italy all the games together with his assistant , as well as the director Giacomo Forte , in addition for some episodes of the first 3 years , another former face of Tg2 , Onofrio Pirrotta , was held in a newspaper kiosk in an Italian newsstand .

Between 2001 and 2005 the program has an extraordinary four-year period . Among the comedians , to the already present Tullio Solenghi and Dario Vergassola , the comedians Maurizio Crozza and Gene Gnocchi are added to the cast . The former became known for his imitations , while the latter for his political satire . Both comedians achieved extraordinary success : on May 5 , 2002 , the program reached a record 43% share and over 7 million viewers . In addition , Ventura has also managed to present several international pop stars , such as the English singer Amy Winehouse who performed on November 4 , 2007 with her single Back to Black , or Lady Gaga , which debuted in 2009 with Paparazzi .
