BBC Italia '90 World Cup title sequence

Uploaded by lordjrw on Sep 9, 2007
The classic opening title sequence used by the BBC for their Italia '90 World Cup coverage.
Credited with bringing opera to the football masses courtesy of Luciano Pavarotti's rendition of 'Nessun Dorma', resulting in it being adopted as a football anthem.
Such was it's popularity following the World Cup, the song was released by the 'Three Tenors' and reached number 2 in the UK singles charts.
Seems like only yesterday...

I am just old enough to remember the 1970 WC in Mexico. Fuzzy TV black and white pictures, coomentary on a poor telephone satellite link.
Mexico 70 was the best, followed by Spain 1982 and then Italia 90. Nessun Dorma, Gazza are the best memories though! And yes, we should have won!
Can anyone tell me what the outstanding moment of the last WC in South Africa was? Thought not.

beautiful, still painful touching even all these years since. best england side i have seen in my lifetime. we were bad in the opening stages but should have won it.

I watched it all in NZ. Yup we got all the English games live over here. In general it was a boring and low scoring world cup. What really made it exciting though was the English team and how they played. I mean, they really played with passion intensity and speed. While Gascoigne was player of the tournament, Des Walker played some great footy. England were unlucky not to do it.
