The collar and piping contain the Italian colors (red, white, green). These Italian colors complete the shirt. On the chest is the flag of Italy with the text Italia. Cool COPA Classic football shirt for the real fan of Italian football. The COPA retro shirts have a regular fit and come in a luxurious COPA gift box. This shirt was worn by Paulo Rossi, Tardelli and Altobelli, among others.
In the first round, Italy was drawn to Poland, Cameroon and Peru. The first 2 matches ended in a draw for the Italians. As a result, Italy had enough in the last game to a draw against Cameroon, which was barely successful. Italy advanced to the next round, but the Italian media were merciless. Paulo Rossi in particular suffered, he played for the first time in 2 years after being suspended for involvement in a bribery scandal. In the second round, Italy was linked to Brazil and Argentina. After the mediocre first round, nobody gave the Italians a chance. Coach Enzo played the well-known catenaccio football against the Argentines. Italy was successful twice in the counter-attack via Tardelli and Cabrini, resulting in 2-1 winning. Brazil needed a draw against Italy, but went full on the attack. Italy also played this match on the attack, which resulted in a 1-0 lead via Paulo Rossi. Socrates took care of the 1-1. Rossi made it 2-1 before half time. After the break, Dino Zoff had no chance with a shot from Falcao. Brazil had enough with the 2-2, but still went on the attack. Again it was Rossi who scored 3-2. Dino Zoff made sure in the final phase with a number of good saves that Italy went to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, Italy won 2-0 in a match without many highlights, twice Paulo Rossi. The final was played between Italy and West Germany and was played in the Sandiago Bernabeu stadium in Madrid. The first half was cautious, with the only 'highlight' being a missed penalty kick from Cabrini. In the second half Rossi took a 1-0 lead. Then Tardelli and Altobelli scored the 2 and 3-0. Just before the end, Breitner scored the West German goal, 3-1. Rossi became the top scorer in this tournament with 6 goals.
