WORLD CUP 2002 SCANDAL

Football tournaments create not only memorable stories but also a series of excitement, triumphs, setbacks, and misfortunes. Look how the most talented teams don't always finish as winners, how beautiful football philosophies don't always bring home the trophy, and how sometimes, those who were never favorites from the beginning emerge as dominant.
A similar story unfolded at Euro 1988, where a champion team like West Germany failed to live up to expectations, England's talent-packed team were losers, and the Netherlands, a spectacular team without a trophy, triumphed.
How exciting was Euro 1988? And how did the Netherlands win it?
Take a look back at the memories from 35 years ago..

I was having such a great day

The ref is Ecuadorian

It was toxic match, with bad calls on each side. Do we forget about the broken nose, or Panucci's tackle from behind that only got him a yellow? Totti dragged his foot on the grass to stumble before making contact with the Korean defender. It was dive, hence it was a booking, hence it was a red card for second yellow. The outraged reaction to this match in the West (where I live) comes from an inability to accept that Italy lost to South Korea, which stemmed from a sense of superiority with a hint of subconscious racism.

Oh boy🤷🏻🤦🏻spare me your contrived pseudo theories and pointless non arguments the match was rigged. The Ref was convicted for manipulating games years later. Either you are just ignorant about it or you are lying on purpose, because of envy xenophobia or anti Italian racism.

Italy is cry baby, they should accept that they can lose to an asian country. Your review is biased

Your comment is ignorant stop crying like a lil baby and accept the truth that Italy was robbed of the possibilty to win the WC, wich they did btw 4 years later, and the match was rigged.
