Famous for

Roberto Baggio is born to Caldogno 18 February 1967 to hours 18,15 in Marconi Street. Has a stubborn character and is of buddhist religion. It has supported in the greatest soccer teams like the L.R. Vicenza, Fiorentina, Juventus, Milan, Bologna, Inter and hour Brescia. Always it has been engaged in its life, also to school where unfortunately it has been rejected in second average why it had in head only a scope, that one to play to soccer and it has not been delivered the diploma to it of accountant to two months from the end of the scholastic career why it has left in withdrawal with the L.R. Vicenza.

Roberto has not had easy life in championship because always it has been replaced with other players and left thick times in park bench, but it has been demonstrated irreplaceable in the national one where for three world-wide ones it has made us to dream (Italy ' 90, USA ' 94, France ' 98), and has been the key man of the National Italian in the World Cup USA' 94.

The career of Roby begins to 17 years with the L.R. Vicenza in series C and one left Vicenza Rimini was disputed where Roby endures one serious lesion to the legamenti of the ginocchio skillful. The 21 september 1986 with the Fiorentina makes debut in serious To in a friendly one with the Sampdoria gained for 1 to 0 but a new accident ginocchio firm in order nearly the all rest of the season and comes carried to Saint Étienne for being operated. The operation succeeds in the large one and after the miraculous Baggio recovery it re-enters to fine championship in order to mark its first one goal in To, it is 10 May, and draft of the punishment-goal against the Naples that it gives to viola the mathematical salvation.

Between Baggio and Fiorentina a love is born and Roby wants to finish the season to Fiorentina where it comes celebrated its wedding the first July of 1989. But, to the 13,48 of 18 May 1990, the Fiorentina officially announces the cession of Baggio to the Juve for 18 billions (a figure record for those times), to Fiorentina bursts the revolt.

The world-wide one of left Italy ' 90 arrives therefore and Roberto in the first three comes left in park bench from the trainer Near, but the place from holder of Gianluca Vialli does not convince and therefore enters to play Baggio and in its first left it marks one splendid goal against Czechoslovakia and it makes living the "MAGICAL NIGHTS ITALIA ` 90".
The hard titular place from 4 consecutive games and in brace with Salvatore Schillaci makes "sfracelli". In the semiend with the Vialli Argentine it asks an other Near opportunity to play to the trainer who this last one grants to it and comes sacrificed to its Roberto place. Italy passes endured in advantage with a goal of Schillaci, but Caniggia pareggia. The game is in order to end and Vialli does not convince and to the 73' it comes put in Roberto field, but by now it was too much late in order to replace the things to place. The game ends 1-1 and it is gone to the rigors, from the floppy disk they fail for Italy Donadoni and Serena and mark Baggio, Baresi and De Agostini, the blueta forgiveness for 3-4. The end for the third and quarter place, rather than for the title it as it was hoped, are gained against England with goals of Baggio and Schillaci.

The start of the championship with the Juventus to the orders of Maifredi is not of happiest, Baggio comes accused from the press of being incostante, and not to know to be a leader for the square, the 6 you open them 1991 returns for before the time to Florence from adversary, it refuses to strike a penalty kick and the Juve loses 1 to 0. Exiting from the field, it collects a scarf viola that it comes to it launch from the tribune.

The "new bianconero course" of
Maifredi and Montezemolo fails, to guide the Juve returns the Trapattoni-Boniperti brace, to the orders of the Trap mature Roberto and demonstrates to know to take for hand the square. Therefore the initially difficult relationship and the diffidenza of the tifoseria come cancel to you from the played ones and the goals of Baggio that to leave from season 92/93 becomes captain of the Juventus.

In the years in which the Milan spadroneggia in Italy and Europe, Baggio also playing well with the Juve and the National one does not succeed to gain a title it, and therefore in many between its detractors of it they are useful for affibbiargli "the losing" label for. Finally but 19 May 1993, the Juventus strikes in end of goblet UEFA the Borussia Dortmund and Roberto can raise from captain its first trophy.



In the December of the ' 93 after a fabulous season, played to the large one it is in Italy is in international field comes consecrated between the large ones of world-wide soccer gaining the Football of gold.

E' the third Italian to receive the prize of France Football, before he was resolutions single Red Rivera and Paul. Beyond to the gold football, he gains prize FIFA player ' 93 in front of Romario and Stoichkov and comes incoronato better player of the world, is the great prelude to world-wide, the national Italian guided from Arrigo Bags in fact obtains the qualification to USA ' 94 to the damages of the Portugal thanks to the goals of Roberto and she introduces herself as between the favorites to the conquest of the title it with to Brasi they.

In 1994, during the world-wide ones of USA, Roberto a lot begins the championship to its better levels is not true that Italy loses for 1 to 0 first left of the girone of qualification against the EIRE. The second one left is against Norway and also in that ugly game there are surprise. Baggio is in vein to play but Bags, our CT, after the expulsion of Dust particle replace it and Baggio gives of crazy in world the vision. The last game of the girone is against Mexico. The game ends 1-1 and Baggio has seemed a ghost and to the end of the game the lawyer Agnelli calls it "bathed rabbit".

Italy comes found again from the girone as better third and it is found to face the Nigeria. Baggio has still not marked a single net in all the torneo and Italy hopes in a miracle. First to pass in advantage they are the nigeriani. The game is most difficult to play also because the warmth is asphyxiating. Bags line up in field Dino Baggio and Gianfranco Zola where this last one will come expelled for makes it nonexistent the damages of a nigeriano defender. Italy plays the rest of the game with 10 men and the things are complicated ulteriorly until when Mussi recovers ball to the limit of the nigeriana area of rigor and it passes it to Roby Baggio that with a perfect diagonal marks its first one goal in the championship. It seems a miracle. To the beginning of the first additional time it comes hissed a rigor for the Italy that Roberto transforms. The game ends 2 to 1 for Italy. Hour that Baggio has found the goal seems all easier and in the game against Spain Baggio it still marks and Italy gains 2 to 1.
The semiend comes played against Bulgaria and Baggio gives to Italy a doppietta personal carrying to us in end, but to the end of this Baggio game infortuna and the probabilities to play the end against Brasi they are little, and the trainer at the moment to line up the formation against the square finalist leaves the decision to Roberto that seglie to play. To the Ros Bol di Pasadena the blueta play the end with little emergency and the prescribed times end 0-0 and it goes itself to the additional times where Roby has two occasions in order to mark that but it throws to the wind. A sentence for our blueta to the championship of the world previous to ITALY ' 90 is gone already to the rigors, and once again we are not good from the 11 meters, mark for Italy Albertini and Evani, sbgliano Natives of Bari, Massaro and just Roby Baggio (I want to remember that Roberto is come down in field in serious conditions, with a streching to the skillful thigh and during the game has endured two makes them hardest that they have gotten worse the things).

After the defeat the relationship between Baggio and Sacchi is definitively cracked and to make of expenses will be the National one.

To the end of this second world-wide adventure Roby Baggio it remains for the last season to the Juventus that will arrive second in Uefa goblet eliminated from the Parma. In the season 1995-1996 Roberto decides to go to the Milan, and also to Sansiro it comes outside left thick times.

96 "England and Roberto arrive European" ' (player more strongly of the world at the moment) do not come convened in National and Italy qualification for is not made eliminatorie of the torneo.

After two years of Baggio sacrifices it decides to go to Bologna where lì it will mark 22 goals in 30 presences and will make to shine Bologna being conquered therefore the convocazione in blue for the world-wide ones of France' 98.

In Roberto France it is put endured in extension against Chile and nearly to the end of the game while the result was 2-1 to favor of Chile, Roberto power of attorney a penalty kick and puts it to sign realizing therefore its first one goal in the world-wide French (Roberto Baggio is the only Italian player to have marked in three various world-wide competitions). Baggio comes put in field against Cameroun and Austria where the B marks an other net exceeding therefore girone.

Exceeded the girone we find ourselves to face Norway where Roberto comes put outside and the game will not play for all and the result is of 1-0 to favor of Italy with goal of Cristian Vieri. Exceeded Norway we find ourselves to face France and this encounter has a sure likeness to the game played against Brasi them for the end of goblet of the world USA ' 94. The blueta have little emergency to play and the prescribed times end 0-0 and it is gone to the additional times where it comes made to enter in field the great Roberto that it will make to shake all the French defense in 5 minuteren. One arrives to soccer rigors and for the third time we are not good from the floppy disk. They mark for Italy Roby Baggio, Costacurta and Vieri, and mistake Albertini and Of Biagio.

An other world-wide adventure for Roberto ends therefore and hour must decide in which club square it must go to play and it chooses the Inter, its square of the heart from when he was child. Also to the Inter it comes often held in park bench and fact to play 11 times in first season and 5 in the second one, where in the last season it has given 12 points in championship to the Inter, the qualification in Italy goblet against the Milan and the qualification to the Champions League where in this last game it has marked two fantastic nets. The 2000 and Baggio is approached therefore, as all Italy expects the convocazione in National for the Europeans. Baggio once again demonstrates to know to play, but the CT of the National Dino Zoff of it does not want to feel and leaves Baggio outside from the list of the 25 convenes to you. This was, perhaps, the last opportunity for Baggio to participate to its first European, but "someone" has evidently not granted this honor to it.

After the divorce with Lippi, Baggio is found again to having to try square, the offered ones from the foreign country does not lack, in particolar way from Spain, Roberto but at the price of I engage little high it prefers to remain in Italy and it chooses Brescia where with Mazzone it hopes to be born for nth
