Italy - Nigeria World Cup 1994 | Full Highlights | FHD 60 fps

[@IamReallySanta]

The World Cups of our youth were just incredible. No stresses in life, not thinking of bills, responsibilities, just football and freedom

[@seven92023]

One of Italy's greatest escape game. A man down and 0-1 but came back to win 2-1. Zola's red card was ridiculous.

[@schmuckpuppet4842]

In context it was a predictable red card. It might not have been a red card in a vacuum, but Italy was practially begging the referee to punish them for their ridiculous theatrics. So when Zola tried another Oscar-winning penalty dive and didn't get it, he lunged at the Nigerian defender in anger. With that red card the referee immediately put a stop to Italy's annoying behavior.

[@seven92023]

@@schmuckpuppet4842 This wasn't a red card action at all in any context.

[@schmuckpuppet4842]

@@seven92023 Not according to any book rule. But the official rules are not always perfect. In my opinion, penalty dives are worthy of red cards in and of themselves. Nowadays a player will get sent off for denying the opponent a goal scoring opportunity, but for some reason this rule does not apply for a player who tries to trick the referee into handing him a goal scoring opportunity. You see where I'm going with this? This referee made a perfect decision. He had already booked an Italian player for diving earlier, and yet the players continued their antics. After the red card, which was given officially for making a kicking motion towards the opponent, Italy started playing actual football again. You could even argue that the referee helped Italy snap out of their delusions and spurred them on to victory.

[@fernandodiaz2367]

@@schmuckpuppet4842 Sounds plausible when I look back at the play

[@EVOZORE]

@@schmuckpuppet4842 Funny explanation because the Nigerian player did exactly the thing that you criticise, he dived and if you consider that Germany won the World Cups of 74 & 90 through Penalty Dives...so the Oscar goes surely not to Italy but to Germany!

Rossi

[@danyoutube7491]

Seeing these highlights I am reminded again how useful Dino Baggio could be in big games in an offensive capacity- he probably had more chances than any other italian, with near misses on several occasions. And he cleared a late Nigerian chance off the line! An important player for Italy.

[@EVOZORE]

Very smart comment! In fact, Dino Baggio was one of the most complete midfielders of all time, as he was ambidextrous, physically strong and almost insurmountable in duels, exceptionally strong with the head and able to perfectly fulfill both defensive and offensive tasks.

[@gabrielesimionato1210]

I always considered Dino Baggio mostly s defensive player

[@PIP...33]

@@EVOZORE naaah overrated just like Paul Scholes disappears in big games. Thats why Italy has no medals cause Roberto Baggio and Maldini carry these generation without great midfield, literally every mid player in Italy is not great . when U compare playmakers and great midfielders Dino is not even top 200 in history I can name at least 100 now better than him.

[@PIP...33]

@@gabrielesimionato1210 Yep. Guy is just solid player and most defender. Donadoni is more offensive midfielder. If I need to pick Ill take Donadoni cause Dino is not on high level of star players. Donadoni is closer to star rating.

[@Celtics6-0vsMonkeyJordan]

@@PIP...33 I agree. Donadoni is far better player. I also can say you speak the truth bout Scholes. Paul always choke in England tho he has the talent but his potential never reached full level especially in national team. Thats why England never won single thing in life. I tho England had best league and best players every World Cup or Euro their squad is literally 22 players superstars or leaders in their clubs. No other country can say that even Brazil beside top 11 players never had so much stars on bench etc. But Scholes and Lampard are those players that media want you to believe they are great while in reality they are just solid and as you said around star rating never top class.

[@marcotesti6393]

17 anni, una delle meglio estati della mia vita. Tanti pensarono che fosse persa. L'assist di Baggio prima del rigore rimane una delle giocate più geniali che abbia visto.

[@Baresi-Unico-Capitano]

I was 10 years old during US 94. It is almost impossible to explain to anyone the feeling of sheer joy, happiness and euphoria on our street here in Milan when Baggio scored that equaliser. Less than 2 months before, I had gone to Athens with my uncle and cousins to witness my club beating Barcelona 4-0 in a champions league final - the most surreal experience for all the right reasons. But this game - the circumstances (Zola sent off) and with italy seemingly heading for the exit was just a match that will forever be a part of me. The all time footballing hero of my life is Franco Baresi. He is untouchable. BUT. Baggio made me love football. I loved to watch him play, and he is the only footballer whose name I've had on the back of my shirt other than Baresi. After every game, we would immediately run outside to play and me trying to recreate his dribbling. When that goal went in for the equaliser, honestly I still feel like it was only yesterday. Just a timeless memory.

[@antonionicotra9962]

[@victoranyanwu-gz1tq]

Come on men. Let's be real. The red card was one of the most horrendous calls I have ever witnessed in the history of football. Such shocking refereeing through out the game, primarily in Nigeria's favour---- in our favour. Yet we still lost even though we were a goal up and a man up for large sections of the match. The Italians thoroughly dominated us and thoroughly deserved to win.

[@geobrume5416]

@@victoranyanwu-gz1tq It was never a controversial red card. Cameroon defeated Argentina in Italian 90 with two red cards. Of course, the Italian team were expected to dominate us because most players play for AC Milan who just won Barca 4-0 at the 1994 champions league final . It was a great side. Nigeria was appearing for the first time but held their own against such a great and complete team. Deal with it, red card and referees are part of the game. The red was not a controversial one. If you say the red card was a controversial, what about the penalty?

[@topefatuna5254]

Albertini won the match for Italy. He took out Amokachi and Amuneke from the match and no red card was given to him.

Silence prevailed in the place. It was a television screen brought by someone studying at the university. We lived in a small village. Staying up late means that you It's great, but this match brought together the old and the young. I'm neither Italian nor Brazilian, but we loved him. Yes, Baggio.

[@nickdecker2350]

While i agree with you, i think the field had a lot to do with it. All the games at this world cup were in 90+ degree F temps, and the grass was probably the best to date for a world cup. Meanwhile a lot of the european leagues at the time had issues with the fields being shit like two games into the season. So most of these guys are used to shooting off of fields that were half mud, or at best good fields that got sprayed down with water pre-game. That probably didn't last long at the temps of this world cup, so it makes sense a lot of the shots went high with the dry fields and less water and mud on the ball
