JazzG yeah. I also spent more time watching Italian football in the early 90s than I did English football. The days when Milan, Juve, Inter, Parma, Sampdoria had unlimited resources from sugar daddies. In 1994, the great AC Milan team won a 34 game league season by scoring 36 goals and conceding 15. This is the celebrated backline with Costacurta, Baresi, Maldini. The football right now is far more attacking.
Italia 90 was also the lowest scoring world cup on goals per game basis. If you remember, this time period led to multiple rules changes including the back pass rule, 3 points for a win, and giving attackers advantage on offside, and straight reds for cynical fouls.
