綠洲Oasis樂隊的主唱加拉格Gallagher堅信，他的到場會給在柏林奧林匹克球場進行決賽的意大利隊帶去好運。
幾年前，德爾皮耶羅看了綠洲樂隊在都靈的一次演出之後和這位創作型歌手成為好友。
39歲的加拉格Gallagher解釋説“亞歷山德羅alessandro是綠洲的歌迷，在一次演出之後，他送給我一雙鞋，不過被我兄弟liam搶走了一支。”
“那天在多特蒙德看意大利和德國的世界盃半決賽，是我第一次在現場看意大利隊踢球，”
“賽前我們去了球隊所住的酒店，德爾皮耶羅看上去有點沮喪，因為他沒能成為首發。”
“後來他對我説‘我一定會替補上場而且進球’--結果一切果真像他説的一樣。”
“那場比賽之後，他説我成了他的福星了，他太迷信了，我必須去決賽，而且好要穿的和那天一莫一樣的衣服，就連襪子和內衣都不能換，這樣才能給他好運。”

原文 Now it's Wonderball
MARK IRWIN in Stuttgart
NOEL GALLAGHER will be wearing his lucky pants for Italy on Sunday after settling another family squabble with brother Liam.
The Oasis front man has been recruited by pal Alessandro Del Piero to act as the Azzurri’s unofficial World Cup final mascot.
And Gallagher is convinced his presence in Berlin’s Olympic Stadium will help the Italians to glory.
The singer-songwriter, who penned hits such as Wonderwall, became friends with Del Piero when the Juventus star attended an Oasis gig in Turin a few years ago.
Gallagher, 39, explained: “Alessandro is an Oasis fan and after one concert he gave me a pair of his boots. But I had to give one of them to Liam.
“I’d never seen Italy playing live until the World Cup semi-final against Germany in Dortmund the other day.
“We went to the team hotel before the game and Del Piero was a bit upset because he wasn’t in their starting line-up.
“Then he told me ‘I’m going to come off the bench and score’ — and that’s exactly what he did.
“After the game he said that I’d become his lucky mascot and he’s so superstitious I’ve got to go to the final and wear exactly the same clothes to bring him good luck — right down to my socks and underwear.”
