The 1990 World Cup is probably one of the strangest World Cups I've looked into. One of the worst on the pitch and seemingly one of the best culturally.
Today, we look into it.

Fun fact: the public in Napoli applauded Maradona for his efforts against Italy, and while this nowadays is seen as a sign of respect and sportsmandhip (see Juve fans against Ronaldo in Champions League), the Italian FA decided to never host another Italy match in Napoli again. To this day, that was the last game that Italy played in the stadium that now bares the name "Diego Armando Maradona"

As a Costa Rican, this world cup has been one of the most beloved ones in our history. Italy 90 was our first world cup ever and we managed to beat Scotland and Sweden. And we managed to barely lose against Brazil. It was our first world cup, and we managed to go to the round of 16. The players that played for CR during this world cup are seen as super heroes till this day. And the coach (Bora Milutinovic) is seen as a god.

As a Swede it's a different story. This is regarded as Swedens worst football tournament ever. We started against Brazil and lost 1-2, OK. Then we faced a rather old version of Scotland and lost 1-2, OK... And then there was the last match against Costa Rica who all the journalists claimed was definately easy to beat. And we lost the ¨easy¨ game with 1-2 and marched out of the World Cup 1-2,1-2.1-2. Hernan Medford scored the winner. Congratulations to Costa Rica.

Making him probably the only English man to be a irish hero

The 2014 Cup ended up being quite traumatic to me (I'm Brazilian lol), but until the semifinals that was the coolest Cup I'd watched. Costa Rica leading a group that had Italy, England and Uruguay; Spain, the title holders, getting a 5x1 thrashing in their first match and then being eliminated by Chile; a shower of goals in the group stage; legends like Messi, Suarez, Neymar, C. Ronaldo, Müller etc all at their peak... Still, 2002 Korea/Japan remains my personal favourite

Frowned upon is an understatement, they booed and whistled the team during the anthem at the final. Italians really showed themselves as the most disrespectful and hostile world cup hosts ever. The worst part is that Maradona couldn't shut them up by winning the cup, thanks to that dubious on the clock penalty. Terrible WC.

5 goals in 7 matches. Argentina went into the final with that stat. But while that sounds awful, we must remember that the team had also lost almost half of their team due to Suspension/Injuries. Add to the fact that despite the dominance of West Germany(23 shots, 16 on target), the deciding goal of the match was a penalty, which was in line with all the reckless tackling Argentina was partaking in until that point. Out of all the fouls though, it was a questionable one that got them the penalty. Also, Matthäus had tripped Jose Calderon after losing the ball in the penalty area. The Referee for this game, Edgardo Codesal, ignored the appeal from the midfielder, refusing to take action. Luck wasn't on Maradona's side this time.

While it was notable for dull play, a combination of England's run to the semis, Gazza's tears and Pavarotti singing Nessum Dorma made it a big deal in England. In the '80s the game itself was often overshadowed by hooliganism, but its increased popularity set the tone for the launch of the megabucks of the Premier League that was launched in 1992.

Caniggia was insane in this tournament and along with Goickachier dragged Argentina to the final. We were introduced to Roberto Baggio after his wonder goal against Czech. We saw Mattahaus at his prime in his 3rd final in a row(went on to play in 5 world cups) Rudi Voller and Frank Rijkard squared up in a spitting competition. This German team on paper was one of the best teams ever and England more the matched them in the Semis. The late Great Bobby Robson should of swapped Shilton for Dave Beasant for the penalty shoot out as he was a far superior saver from the spot. Then we would of then beaten this very average Argentina side. All ifs and buts of course

I’m very surprised that you didn’t talk about Goycochea! The 3rd choice Argentina gk who had to play because the other two got injured. He saved 5 penalties!!

Why does everyone go on about Roger Miller doing that dance by the corner flag, when was just copying Brazilian striker Careca, who did it before him, during one of Brazil's group games? Is it simply because he was 38, which was considered to be ancient for a striker back in 1990?

Many Neopolitans loved Maradona more than they loved Italy in 1990. This all goes back centuries, to when the North and South of the country hated each other.

as an irishman italia 90 is one of the most important sporting moments in our countries history, it was the first time that it felt ok to be irish and to fly our nations colours without it being stigmatized as a terrorist symbol i mean to this day Jack Charlton is one of the greatest sporting figures to represent our country and to make something of that squad.

Ireland has nothing on Paraguay. In the Copa America 2011 Paraguay drew all their group games, all their knockout games to reach the finals, and scoring 0 goals in their 3 knockout games. Most boring team I have ever seen.

If you wanted to see goals Czechoslovakia scored 6 and conceded 3 in the the 3 group games. They also had a 4-1 win in the round of 16. Shame they played Germany in the next round losing 1-0.

I thought I would never see a World Cup as unpredictable as USA 94 in my lifetime, but Russia 2018 happened, and is easily one of the best documents of international football at its most competitive.

Italy 90 was not as bad as Korea-Japan 2002 was. I believe in terms of goals and rules... Yeah, they were very different but also the mediocre matches and the corruption behind it. Plus, since Brazil made the worst qualifying round of their history FIFA needed a MUST for them to win and elevate their image in front of the world. And so they did. That's at least my point of view.

2018 or 2002 are the worst world cups I've seen. I'd 2002 bc 2018 wasn't that bad but I didn't enjoyed it as much. One side of the path was a Classical Euro with many B level nations except Spain and England and Colombia as special guest. The other side 2as nice but the real final was the semifinal
