@@francesconasole5281 its very unfortunate a tackle should be celebrated like a goal. I have the same attitude will never let them make the goal and defend for my life. That's why love the Italian defense.

@@canelkahriman9768 you bet

@@canelkahriman9768 yes when they played together from the first minute

Baresi, Maldini, Tassotti and Costacurta. They had a useless goalkeeper like Sebastiano Rossi, who hardly ever had shoots on target.

@@asevado I disagree with that statement. Rossi did flop against Ajax, because Rossi could have easily blocked the shoot with his foot, yet Rossi wasnt known to block balls with his Feet. So Kluivert, who had a goalinstinct similar to Inzaghi beat Rossi in that Champions Final. And also, that Ajax team was incredibly strong. Yet, here I am and I say that Rossi is in my opinion the most underrated goalkeeper in history. Maybe an unlucky one considering his career. He could throw the ball with his hands like others do with their feet! Never seen any other like him. And he made many incredible saves. You also have to consider that Seria A was at his time the strongest of the world. Btw, it wasn't any Ajax, it was the strongest Ajax of its team history in my point of view. (Yes, even stronger than Cruyff era)

Can you blame him It's the Ronaldo fast like light and strong

@@arsamein88 yes

I've only seen two players match or outdo Paolo Maldini. Overmars outmatched him with his insane speed, making the older Paolo have to pull some fouls to stop him, but Paolo still held his own against him. Ronaldo outmatched him, Nesta and everyone else. Simply too good, quick and creative before those damn injuries.

@Alfa&Omega 00000 you only saw post injury Ronaldo then

Not just your opinion, THEY WERE THE BEST

As a Manchester United supporter, I really loved Ferdinand & Vidic. Since Maldini's decline they have been the best defensive pair I think. But that might soon change with van Dijk & de Ligt in the Dutch national team.

@@rafihfn obviously at his team mates, Maldini was a gentleman, he would never talk in that way to an opponent!

Emiliano Laurenzi his still has Zico’s ripped shirt and Maradona’s ankle hung on his wall 😂😭

Nobody that played against him at WC or Euro scored Zico, Maradona, Kempes, Krankl, Fischer, Boniek...zero goals. Claudio Gentile a guarantee!

Ma dai... Gentile era un picchiatore e basta. All'epoca il calcio era molto piu fisico (ho cominciato ad andare a SanSiro nel '83)...il regolamento consentiva molto piu contatto e sanzionava fondamentalmente solo l'entrata da dietro a forbice (a volte manco quella...), persino le gomitate erano punite solo se palesemente volontarie....anche tirare la maglia era abbastanza consentito salvo che il giocatore venisse palesemente strattonato e sbilanciato per piu di 2 o 3 secondi. E si giocava "a uomo". In pratica giocatori come Gentile o Furino si appiccicavano a un avversario assegnato e lo picchiavano tutta la partita tirandogli la maglia, dandogli gomitate o entrandogli sulle gambe appena si avvicinava la palla a lui.

@@ClaudeMagicbox Ma lo dici te stesso che allora si giocava "a uomo" e che le continue trattenute erano "normali" e io ci aggiungo che non esistevano le ammonizioni per falli tattici ne la espulsione per doppia-ammonizione e tutto ciò é stato a favore di Gentile sicuramente, vero no?! Ma vale per qualsiasi altro difensore (o mediano) di quei tempi ma non tutti sono riusciti a non fare segnare i propri avversari - Gentile spesso, molto spesso ci riusciva annullandoli completamente. Questa é la differenza! Ci tengo a precisare che non era cattivo, quei falli come per esempio quello di Benetti su Castellini, non erano da lui perché puntava molto sul anticipo e se non gli riusciva anticipare, bloccava con fisico gli avversari appena gli arrivasse il pallone (nel momento che cercavano di girarsi verso la porta sua) perché riusciva a "leggere" i loro movimenti...poco talento tecnico ma tatticamente e difensivamente nel suo reparto e ruolo da marcatore a uomo, é stato un giocatore fuori dalla norma.

@@EVOZORE Sono d'accordo, Gentile giocava molto sull'anticipo e sul fisico. Era rude, ma non un picchiatore. In tutta la carriera fu espulso una volta, per doppia ammonizione (proteste). E per parecchi anni e' stato praticamente insuperabile, gli davano l'attaccante piu' forte e lui lo annullava. Benetti era un delinquente, andava per fare male, e spesso pure ci riusciva. Tardelli era un'altra carogna, talmente bravo anche in costruzione da far dimenticare le entrate assassine. Zoff-Gentile-Cabrini-Brio-Scirea con Furino davanti e' sta una delle difese piu' forti viste in Italia, credo alla pari solo di quelle dell'Inter anni '60 e del Milan di Sacchi/Capello. Ed e' stata l'ossatura delle nazionali del '78 ed '82.

Batigol was a different kind of beast.

Sta volta con Romagnoli eroe della difesa

doubt it

Fix the attacking side 1st

Italia always comes back

Italy has the victory in her dna

How you feel about this now 😆🏆🇮🇹

The rules have changed,physical contact is way less allowed and so defense is more about parking the bus that trying to tackle and go for a counter,that's why there are many teams that play high posses football because they have the time on the ball now a thing that with a man on man marking you werent allowed

Chiellini and godin are few of them

because defending and pressing become collective responsibilities nowadays not just defenders. one player need to have many aspects besides their positions to cover space when build up/defending now a striker need to have a defending aspect to pull back, pressing defenders (or tackle them) and build up attack to the teammates.. that's why it is called advance forward

@@wasigupitobudiarto7767 True. Defending today is much more a matter of making the team on the ball doubt themselves and pass the ball back to try a new angle, so there's less pressure on the centrebacks' and wing backs' shoulders. You can even virtually count with the fingers on one hand the numbers of attempted sliding tackles in a typical top league match today. Some of the tackles in the video are no longer allowed, and players have received yellows and reds for, even if it played the ball first, because the follow through are considered dangerous plays.

@@jacobpedersen-banovcinyear2965 don't u ever pls nooooooo
