This is the story of Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990". 

He left his homeland for a new address. He thought that the European country would make Spain his new home. But Maradona's mind did not settle in that country. Two years later, he was deported from Spain due to an accident. As Barcelona sought to oust him as a villain, the tiny club in the southern Italian city embraced him with great affection. The name of the club: Napoli.

Naples. Residents of northern Milan would sniff at the name. Everyone in the north is like a king, and Naples is like a village ghost rising from a sewer. It was this neglected club that spent a record amount of money pulling Maradona into the team. About 75,000 people turned out to greet Maradona at the Stadio San Paolo.

While the Naples are busy welcoming their new hero on their own field, everyone in the north seems to be blowing. Maradona still doesn't know anything about Italy. The country is the next thing, the new club does not know exactly. But by then he has become a poison in the eyes of many Italian club supporters.


Napoli are the middle tier of the Italian league. They have never been seen holding a Serie A trophy. We don't know what they thought when they put a foreign player in the hero's seat. Maybe they had a latent desire to win the league. But who wants to be a laughing stock by expressing it outside!

But Maradona overcame all dreams, real or unreal. He brought the Italian league title to Napoli with a complete single skill. Not once, but twice in four years. Between winning the league title twice, Napoli got the thrill of winning the UEFA Super Cup.

In the first season, Maradona became the king of Naples. Not only in the magic of the field, but also in word of mouth, Naples won the hearts of the supporters. When another World Cup appeared in front of football fans in 1990, Maradona was the god of Napoli. There was a picture of Jesus Christ right next to it. Maradona's image is everywhere in the city. Banners were hung for the dead in the city cemetery.

Maradona-Bandana begins with the end of each match on the field. After the victory of Scudetto, everyone in the Napoli dressing room sang a song mixed with love and anticipation about Maradona.Just during this happy time in Napoli, another World Cup appeared around the year. The World Cup will be held in Italy. The football emperor of Napoli will also be seen on the stage of the World Cup. But he will have another jersey of blue and white mixture. That jersey is completely unfamiliar to them.

Before the start of Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990" in Italy, a storm of injuries swept through the Argentine camp. Jorge Valdano, who scored 4 goals in the previous World Cup, was completely ruled out due to injury. From Tata Brown, Oscar Rugeri, Ricardo Giuseppe to Jorge Buruchaga, even Maradona himself has not been ruled out. Although he was suffering from a toe injury before coming to the World Cup stage. In Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990" start with the injury problem, Argentina again traveled to Italy to play in the World Cup as the best team in the middle. But the criticism of Maradona from the beginning of the World Cup in Mexico is different this time. Every week, Maradona enters the field where the World Cup will be held. Several matches will also be held at Napoli. Every grass in that field knows Maradona's touch. He is also having a great time in terms of form; Scudetto won for Italy for the second time, becoming the top scorer in the Italian league with 16 goals.

But Maradona was disappointed in his first match against Cameroon at the San Siro. The only goal of the Cameroon players throughout the match was an unnecessary foul in the name of Maradona and snatching the ball from his feet. The other 9 Argentines could not go above that average. In a 4-4-2 formation with a sweeper defender, Buruchaga and Abel Balbo could not take advantage of Argentina's attack. So 1-0 defeat in the first match.

The second match of Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990" in the group stage against the Soviet Union returned to the Napoli Stadium in San Paolo. More Napoli fans than Argentine fans in the whole gallery. The hero of their dreams returns to his hometown in a different jersey, but he is the king of Naples. But on his own field, in front of his own spectators, Maradona could not open the scoring of goals or assists. However, the formation of the team changed, the most talented young Claudio Canizia of Argentina then returned to the XI. However, Buruchaga and Trogilo beat Argentina 2-0.

The third match is again at that stadium in San Paolo. Opponent Romania, Billardo's first choice goalkeeper Pompido ended the World Cup with an injury. His replacement, Anhel Comizo, flew to Italy, and Sergio Goiczia stood under the goal against Romania.



In Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990"Argentina could not come back with a win against Romania. In the 1-1 draw, Maradona played very average football. But in that match, Maradona's demands became quite clear. He understood that this time the team is very ordinary. There is no Valdano, Buruchagar form is not the same as before. Kanizia is talented, but still can't shine. And it is not possible to play God-given football in every match. If he tries to lead the team by leading alone like in the 86th World Cup, maybe he can succeed. But if he stops in one match, Buruchaga will not be able to pull the team forward as before. So it is safest to lead from behind without trying alone.

The term 'workrate' fits well with Maradona's three-match style of play in the group stage. A midfielder who plays in midfield, defends, blunts the opponent's tactics or attacks - such hardworking midfielders are the favorites of today's coaches. Even if he doesn't score regular goals or assists, the coach doesn't mind. Maradona emerged as this hard-working midfielder at the World Cup in the 1990s to lead a standard team.

Argentina finished third in Group B and advanced to the next round. In the knockout stage, their opponent is Group C champions Latin American superpower Brazil. Zico was not Maradona's biggest opponent in the match, but Selecao and Albiceste have always been interested in this football fight.

Turin's Stadio returned to Maradona's form against Brazil in Delle Alpis. So far, Argentina's World Cup winning hero has given instructions from below. In this match, he went ahead on the battlefield. Buruchaga played well below Maradona; Kanizia was also there, returning to form for the first time at the World Cup. But Brazil always took the lead in the match. Goyakchia blocked some great shots of the Selecao. But 10 minutes is enough to win the match.

Maradona got the ball in the middle in the 60th minute. But he was surrounded by four Brazilian midfielders. However, with dust in everyone's eyes, Maradona broke through their defenses. Horse Basulda tried his best to stop Maradona from fouling from behind but failed. There were three defenders in the Brazilian D-box at the time, but Canizia was empty on the left. Maradona saw it out of the corner of his eye. In the middle of the three defenders, the defender extended the ball to Kanizia in one pass. However, it is difficult to determine whether Maradona's pass is more spectacular or whether it is a clever shot by Kanizia to beat Tafarel.

Maradona returned to form, albeit slightly. In one match, Kanizia and Goyakchia became trustworthy. But even then, no one dreamed that Maradona's last contribution to the World Cup in Italy would be the assist given to Canizia.

Argentina's opponent in the quarter-finals of Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990" is Yugoslavia, with no goal in the 90th minute which led to a penalty shootout. Buruchagar's goal was surprisingly canceled by the referee of the day. However, if the goal had not been canceled, one of the dramas of that day would have remained elusive!

Yugoslavia failed to score in the first penalty shot, while Argentina scored in two consecutive shots. But it's time to take the third shot at the noise barrier. Maradona himself failed to score! Yugoslav goalkeeper Ivokovic easily caught his weak shot. Trogillo may have lost his confidence when he saw Maradona miss him. He also surprised everyone by scoring a penalty in the goal. Goyakchiar became the hero of this terrible time of Argentina. With great pressure on his head, Goyakchia calmed down Yugoslavia's last two penalty shots to take Argentina to the semifinals.

Maradona has built a career in Napoli. Although he was not born in this country, now his hometown is Italy. After losing to Juventus, the foreigner walked the streets of Naples with his supporters and sang. Again he said to himself, I am the king of Naples. This time he will play against Italy. Bidhata herself may have wanted to create a dramatic moment. Otherwise, so coincidentally, the venue of this provocative match is Stadio San Paolo!

A few days before the match, Maradona poured oil on the fire. He no longer kept football in the game, but took it straight to the door of political debate. Maradona said in a press conference before the start of the match, "Everyone is now asking Naples to support Italy by becoming Italian. I don't like this at all. Napoli has always been remarkably different from the rest of the country. This city has seen the most discrimination, racism."

Maradona didn't think for a moment to shake off the anger of keeping Napoli in solitary confinement. Criticizing Italy, he asked Napoli to support Argentina in the semifinals."You are considered a foreigner in your own country for 364 days. And you are being asked to support that again. Look at me, I'm Napoleon 364 days a year."

Stadio a strange match in San Paolo in July of the nineties. Argentina vs. Italy. But supporters in the Italian city of Napoli are hesitant. Throughout the national anthem of Argentina, the hosts did not forget to greet. The people of Naples came with different banners. It says,"Diego is in our hearts. But Italy is our homeland".

Throughout the World Cup, Maradona suffered a number of injuries. He also suffered an ankle injury in the semi-final match. Also, the attacking side of Argentina could not play an instinctive game almost the entire time of this World Cup. On the contrary, the defense has been very solid and the defense has also helped the Argentines to go a long way in the World Cup. But in the 18th minute, Argentina's defense in front of Shilachi got a push from the beginning, Italy went ahead.

However, Argentina returned to the match after digesting the goal. Maradona was quite injured, with fitness issues. Even then, in his playmaking, Argentina equalized in 67 minutes. However, you will not find Maradona's name in the list of goals or assists in this match. Because, due to his great playmaking in the middle, Argentine left winger Olarticoechia got the ball. Kanizia scored his second World Cup goal with his assist.

The fate of the match was not clear even in 120 minutes. Therefore, penalty shootout.Argentina and Italy managed to score three of their first three shots. At home, Napoli's football-god is coming forward to take Argentina's fourth penalty shot in front of his own spectators. Missed the penalty in the previous match and almost pushed Argentina into the ditch. Goyakchia blocked Donaduni's shot. What will be the goal? What a terrible nervous pressure inside!

Took a weak shot against Yugoslavia. He also took a weak shot against Italy. But Italian goalkeeper Walter Zenga jumped in the opposite direction. However, due to Maradona, this match was one of the most memorable matches of the World Cup, but he was not the hero to lift the final. Donaduni and Serena's penalties were saved and Argentina reached the final for the second time in a row.

Argentina's opponents in the Football God's third World Cup "FIFA 1990"'s final are Germany, Italy who are playing three finals in a row including the World Cup. They lost to Argentina in the final of the 86th World Cup, but this time the German team is different. Franz Beckenbauer's team reached the final stage by defeating Gulit-Kuman-Reicard's Holland. And Kanizia will not be able to play in the final to see a yellow card in the semifinals. Argentina has lost more power due to his absence. So Germany is definitely the favorite in the final.

However, the final between Argentina and Germany is one of the most controversial in the history of the World Cup. Argentina did not play with an aggressive attitude that day. After Pedro Monjon's red card in the 65th minute, Argentina, who were reduced to 10 men, could not overcome it. In the 65th minute, Brehme scored from the penalty spot for Germany. However, there is still considerable controversy surrounding the imposition of this penalty. Just two minutes after the penalty, the red card was shown to the Argentine striker Gustavo Dezatti.

Italy's World Cup was not a historic or two-handed success for Maradona. He also made it to the final with a weakened Argentina, but there was more of a single contribution from Maradona to Canizia or Goichia. However, if the goddess of fortune had been a little more helpful or the referee's decisions had not been completely against Argentina, a different story could have been written at the Stadio Olympico that day!
