Vardy's strange shirt

Jamie Vardy attracted special attention with his shirt bearing the words "Becky 10" and behind it was a very humane cause.

Special text on Vardy's shirt.

At the age of 38, the Leicester legend was named by coach Davide Nicola to start against AS Roma at the Giovanni Zini stadium on the night of November 23. But like the rest of the team, Vardy did not have his name on the back of his shirt. Instead, the familiar number 10 was paired with the word "Becky", the name of his 43-year-old wife Rebekah, as an emotional tribute.

Cremonese is participating in the social campaign "A Red to Violence", which is taking place on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. This is an initiative that has spread strongly in Serie A, with a series of teams such as Lecce, Lazio, Parma and Udinese also responding. All players changed their shirt name to a woman who has a special meaning to them: mother, wife, daughter or family member.

Vardy and Rebekah have been together since 2014, got married in 2016 and have a large family of six children - three of them, two of Becky's children and one of Vardy's children. The England striker's choice to put his wife's name on his shirt not only shows his support for the campaign but also sends a strong message of respect for the women in every footballer's life.

In this match, Vardy played poorly despite playing the full 90 minutes, causing Cremonese to lose 1-3 to Roma. The home team is stuck in 11th place after 12 rounds. Meanwhile, Roma surprisingly took the top spot in Serie A with a 2-point lead over the chasing teams.
