We’re into the final minutes of Inter against Barcelona, and Francesco Acerbi has just made it 3-3. The San Siro rocks. In Leichardt, where it’s 7am, so does Bar Sport. Football and coffee: rules for life, in Italy and right here. There may be new owners, but the $3.50 espresso is still strong, the Serie A schedule still scrawled on the wall, with piccolo-sized brioche rolls and flaky sfogliatelle the star players. Forza.

Best for: A caffe latte and a breakfast roll, with eyes on the big screen.
