  • Ah, Mario Lacatus, I was always fond of his cunning tactic of mashing the ball with severity straight through the goalkeeper.

  • The only downer about the '90 world cup was the lack of a backpass rule, and the referees allowing people to foul with impunity.

    The actual standard of play was astronomical, every bit as good as today - possibly better.

  • my first WC to watch it .. i was 11 yr old .. nice memories ..

  • @meedo2009k

    my first WC too....I was 6 yrs old.....

    good times good fun

  • @kashmira6

    nice .. but you were too small at that time .. good interest ..

  • Stuart pearce had scored every penalty kick he took for Forest season 89/90..

    The semi vs West Germany sods law came into play...

    It still makes me feel gutted watching it today, so close for England!

    Bobby Robson nearly pulled it off...

    COME ON ENGLAND!

  • i must have watched the video about 45645645 times

  • This outstanding! I Found this video on youtube Audi Jepson's bicycle kick

  • Everything about Italia 90 was just right, the class of West Germany, all the big name players, the atmosphere of the crowd and the beauty of the surrondings. Compare it to the dross of USA 94 were everything was wrong. Best world cup in living memory! Wish they'd bring this out on DVD

  • I think this world cup had the most drama of any worldcup and all the superpowers clashed and mostly played well making it an awesome world cup

  • brings tears 2 my eyes,watched this in VHS everyday of my youth when i had the boxset

  • @JohnnyDevaney

    me too I grew up watching this stuff and this is why I love the world cup.

  • @JohnnyDevaney :

    the same as you. And I'm French. This VHS exists in french. Same music,

  • Germany won in Italy, and Italy won in Germany 2006 and took the title. it all smells of a "HUGE CORRUPTION SCANDAL to me!"

  • The worst world cup ever !

  • the italians should have won this one. It was easily the best italian team of the last 30 yrs. They played with great flair and attacking mindset.... SCHHHIILLLAACCIIIII!

  • What a boring world cup full of nil nil draws and penalties.

  • Thank you! I've lost my VHS copy of this, brings back great memories!

  • I can never forgive the Italians for allowing a rather wily Argentina to slip by them.

  • Oh I remeber purchasing this film from WHSmith in late 1990 along with Ian Morrison's 'The World Cup A complete History' a fantastic book.

  • Recuerdo ese torneo en especial por el empate Colombia 1 Alemania 1 ¡que partido!

  • i absolutely loved that world up.

  • i was 16 back then and i love every part of it great memores

  • @frytok yeah and im 16 right now, and ive just watched a shitty 2010 world cup. wish i was fucking born to see italia 90. baggio, van basten and lineker were better then torres, villa and any other strker at south africa

  • It was a poor world cup with one of the worst finals ever but not as bad USA 94

  • @denilson200 it was the BEST worldcup ever! i think you are from spain or france and you hate italy because was the best worldcup

  • This was labelled a crap world cup because of the few goals scored in the tournament, but it was the first one I ever saw and that's why I love it.

  • Thank you for the upload. I watched this a million times growing up.

  • Thanks for posting this, absolutely magic. Had this on VHS, lent it out to someone & never got it back, watching this brings back some great memories. Quality. :-)

  • i agree one of the best ever if not the best...even when my country lost the final match...the worste world cup ever was korea 2002

  • I think there were only about 120 odd goals scored ,thats why the experts say it was a poor world cup,but i thought it was the best tournament of my time and i'm 29 now.Come on england

  • This tournament is only remembered, as far as I'm concerned, as the closest England have come in my lifetime to winning it. On the whole, it wasn't a very exciting event with a very poor final.

  • I was 17 when this tournament was played; and I thought it was very dull. However there were a couple of classic games; and some very good goals, which is the least you would expect really. Mexico 86 was for me, the best world cup I have ever seen, for reasons I don't have enough typing space for. Alot of people here say that this was their first world cup, and that's the reason so many people get all misty eyed about it; because it was the first world cup they can remember. 

  • Why does everyone say this WC was so great!? Sure it was if you like nil-nil draws mixed with dubious penalties.

  • is this the vid where brian moore pretends to be commentating live on some matches? He shouts goal before the ball hits the back of the net!!!

  • Its funny how some people say this world cup was dreadful. Arguably the football wasn't visionary, but the whole aura of the tournament, the drama of the matches, the atmosphere, the teams, the players, the desire within the players... it was powerful emotive stuff.

  • @nickdc1

    Agree entirely.

    Football wise 1990 was a dross world cup, but the drama and soundtrack ('Nessun Dorma' and 'Un Estate Italiana') were enough to make it memorable even if the footy was not.

  • @JMR83 stai zitto coglo

  • @912619ag

    WTF?????

  • Amazing video this. Not only of the last great World Cup, but there's great soundtrack, perfect format and voice over. Can't find this on DVD which is a shame... and the VHS screws up just as Platt takes his pen against Germany and only comes good in the 3rd place play off... which isn't a bad thing!

    What a tournament!

  • Comment removed

  • After the shitfests that were WC's 02 and 06, Italia 90 surely must be considered one of the best ever. Great atmosphere and tension throughout.

  • lol, i got this video... watched it over and ove

  • awesome, i have this on vhs but have no vhs player anymore. nice one.

  • thanks!

  • nice vids thanks!!

  • man this brings back memories,i can remember Schillaci, every time i scored playing football down the local field i would shout schillaci!!!!!!! every time i shot or scored lol

  • italia 90 best world cup i can remember

  • italia 90 was the best world cup ever, it's shame the final was really dull as the tournament that came before it was brilliant and thoroughly entertaining.

  • usa 94????!!!!!are you CRAZY???? shiny yanks made sure it was cheeseier than a dawson's creek script dunked in fondu

  • @sodoffpinches hey each to there own man...but in my opinion...they are the best.

  • @sodoffpinches

    Nobody cares what a chav inbred like you thinks.

  • Italia 90 and USA 94 = The Best World Cups.

  • la campaña caniggia maradona la mas grande

  • If Brazil beat Argentina in the Round of 16, certainly failed in the Quarter Finals against Yugoslavia.

  • In the final, the tiffosi cheered when the Argentina´s National Anthem was played. And the world saw Maradona tell to the crowd "Hijos de Puta". He told the same when he lost the final.

  • i grew up on this highlight tape

  • me too dude watched it every day when i was 7 yr old!!!

  • There's only one Brian Moore.

  • I like these WC vidoes and prefer the ones like this with the retrospective commentary. More classy and refined I think.

  • worst world cup ever. cameeron did well and germany played some nice stuff during the early stages..

    apart from that, it was awful.

  • This was one of the greatest WCs ever.....

  • Probably the worst WC ever... lots of 0x0 and 1x0, several red cards, and a final with a very questionable penalty... beautiful goal from Baggio, though!

  • I have to agree. Matthaus' goal was also great.

    The stadiums were beautiful too.

  • LA FINAL DE ESTE MUNDIAL Podria haber sido Brazil vs Holanda o Alemania vs Brazil o Holanda vs Alemania

    Pero no Alemania vs " argentina

  • Tenia que haber sido Italia-Argentina. Estaba escrito.

  • @danivalencia11 Hola, saludos.... Y seguramente era lo que esperaban o ansiaban los organizadores. Lastimosamente, el libreto lo dañó la misma Argentina, al no ganar el grupo y quedar de tercero. Saludos,

  • It doesn't matter what some people say, this was one of the greatest world cups of all time. Great goals, great players, and one of the most beautiful countries of the world: Italy.

  • worst world cup ever

  • your'e obviously not English

  • i was nine and the wholrecountry of ireland went crazy-we got knocked out in the quaters by d italians and that was our best ever team.used to love the little mascot running across the screen when there was a goal

  • Sweet memories, Was 8 years old in italia 90 WC. Had have this on VHS casette somewere. One of the best WC ever, and the WC-song "Un estate" mmm briliant. My favorite song when I was little:). Roberto Baggio and Caniggia was my favorites

  • i reckon italia 90 was one of the best ever as well

  • i dont think so...i was 11...the reason why i think it was great because the players in that era at that particular wc where amazing. england, the republic of irealnd, the argentines,the italians..the fans were amazing..especially it being in italy...more goals doesnt necessarily mean a better wc...all aspects must be looked at...sure i agree that more goals means more entertainment though

  • i never said it was, i said it is generally considered the worst. The games were poor for the most part and a brutal argentina side got to the final, Ireland got to the quarters without winning a game!

  • one of the best world cups ever!

  • I'm from Poland and i bought this video (in polish version) in 2000.... That was for me the best cassette ever - when I have 10 years old, I was know almost everything about Italia'90!!!! My favourite player was Claudio Caniggia.

  • That Matthaus goal was pure class!!

    Baggio's was brilliant too!!

  • HAHAHA!!

    I have this video too.

    Brian Moore is a legend!!!

  • I have this VDO too.

    Lothar Matthaus is a Legend!!!

  • classic video, i bought it in 1993 :)

  • Would you like to make me a copy to sell? PM me if anyone has a copy to sell. Also interested in ANY world cup vids from ANY other world cup 1990-2006.

  • I doubt I kept it, probably threw it away when I threw away my VCR bro

  • I used to love Guisseppe Giannini. Good Italian team back then. Even though they knocked Ireland out!!

  • sweet memories !

  • Good series. Keep on doing it. I would also like Germany'74, Argentina 78... Very interesting, good job.

  • great to see Maradona crying the little twat

  • I had this vid and my mum gave it to a jumblesale! Never thought id see it again....Awesome!! Thanks alot""
