Outdoor jersey Italy World Cup 1982

If ever there was a lesson on how to run a smart and successful World Cup campaign, look no further than Italy in 1982. Start slowly so you don't get swayed by the media, then move forward little by little as the tournament progresses. Confidence increases and fluidity improves. Make a big issue of the national press in your country to create a stronger team spirit than ever before. Italy is famous for creating a kind of talented and intelligent players: if Gentile's aggression made the Argentinian genius Maradona desperate, then Paolo Rossi's ruthless performance against the Brazilian defence or Marco Tardelli's brilliant long-distance shot to push an excellent West Germany into defeat, are also worthy of note.
