Context needed here. He is unquestionably the best Italian footballer of all time and one of the world's best ever - a pure genius whose career doctors said was over at 18 because of a busted knee requiring 220 stitches, recovered to play for 20 years on one good leg winning the Ballon D'Or, who carried that often insipid '94 Azzurri team on his shoulders to the final, played with a hamstring problem for the entire 120 minutes against Brazil and stepped up only to save Italy (again) from losing as two others had already missed their penalties and after he missed went on to be ostracised by coach after coach, Sacchi, Lippi, Zoff, Trapattoni, even Ancelotti etc. until he found the right man in Mazzone at Brescia far too late in his career. They left him out of Serie A matches, Euros, World Cups - can you just imagine the outcry if, at any point, Argentina had dared to leave out Maradona or Messi or Brazil benching Ronaldo, Rivaldo or Ronaldinho during their heyday? That's the difference.
There was shit load of pressure on him. Debates with his coach, injuries and being the ballondor winner. Even if he scored, Italy wasn't going to be the champion 100%, penalty shootous were going to continue that is all. But as a ballondor winner missing a penalty like that is really devastating

Many don't understand why this is the most famous penalty in football history. It's 1994, Roberto Baggio is the winner of the last Ballon d'Or. The whole world expects to see the world champions: Maradona, Baggio, Romario, just as today we expect to see the performance of Messi, Ronaldo, Mbappe. In Italy's first 3 matches, Baggio played badly and didn't score, and was overwhelmed by criticism. Round of 16: Italy are losing against Nigeria 1-0, 2 minutes left. Suddenly Roberto Baggio rises again, with a precision goal. From that moment it will never stop. 2 goals against Nigeria in the round of 16, 1 goal against Spain in the quarterfinals, dribbling past the goalkeeper in the last minutes, 2 goals against Bulgaria in the semifinals. Italy-Brazil final, Baggio-Romario duel, both top scorers with 5 goals. Baggio took Italy to the final practically alone, an Italy that hadn't played very well. If he had won the World Cup, he would have done something comparable to Maradona in '86: winning a World Cup by himself. Imagine today a Ballon d'Or of the year, for example Messi, who wins all the matches by himself up to the final of the World Cup, and then misses the decisive penalty, just him! What happened to Roberto Baggio is something incredible, one who never missed penalties: the bitterness of the cruellest defeat, in one of the most iconic moments in the history of sport, not just football.
@@demonofdeath2020 ese penal fallado significó su cuarta derrota en una final, la segunda contra Chile, ahora llorando, con otro insípido 0-0 resuelto en penales, la repudia de muchos Argentinos (sobretodo de quienes lo comparaban con Diego) y su renuncia a la selección. Gracias a Dios eso no fue el final.
I saw this. He was injured but he keep playing because italy was so depend on him at the time. The were exhausted even before the game started but they kept fighting up to the penalty. They lost but gain my respect until today even they missed the world cup. Forza Italia 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨
I was almost nine for my first World Cup. Though my first World Cup was in 1982. Lots of similarities between the w we I teams. Both had slow starts and both Italian stars Rossi and Baguio did not start scoring until their fourth games after the round robin. Off the top of my head.
I was heart broken for Italy and Baggio when they lost this game, but this WC was when I feel in love with the Italian national team. I wonder how good Baggio could have been if he didn't struggle with injuries most of his career, I really wish he could have won a WC. :( Baggio will always be my favorite player.
The expectations on Baggio were astronomical during the 1994 World Cup. I mean he was the poster boy along side Romario as the two headlining stars of the event. On top of that he was the reigning Ballon D'or so he was under tremendous pressure to carry the nation. Unfortunately for Italy, he was the main star especially in the attacking department. Whereas for Romario, his burdens were shared with an equally capable Bebeto as the accomplice striker.
If we hat Ancelotti as manager with all the amazing players left out that year Mancini Vialli Ferri. I can go on forever … instead the bald Milan coach decided to bring his Milan to World Cup and was forced to bring Baggio Played Zola at the wrong moments played Signori in the wrong position brought Berti as midfielder ( he was outrageous) But Still we could have done more Lucky to go through group stage so Brazil deserved that World Cup much more than Italy
I really really love baggio. I would put maradonna late 80s, Baggio a little bit above romario early 90s and Zidane late 90s. Early 2000s ronaldo fenomeno, late 2000s messi, ronaldo early 2010s, messi late 2010s, early 2020s will probably be mbappe.
One of the greatest and most talented footballers of all time. A little bit of history for those who don't know, Roberto Baggio was one of the most skilled individuals of his generation and he was formidable during this world cup. He took on entire football teams and without him, Italy definitely would not have made it to the final. He did all the work and carried Italy to the final. Roberto Baggio, you are one of footballs greatest heroes.
Football media is great at turning football heroes into football villains. Roberto Baggio is one of the greatest of all time. This one penalty does not some up his magnificent career. He's one of the pioneers of modern day football talent.
I fell in love with football because of Baggio, his the reason why I love the game so much, people talk about his penalty miss a lot but all I ever see is everything else his done not just for football in general but for Italian football, I never hear anyone criticise or banter him as a player which is beautiful to see, he was my idol, from the first time I seen him play in 1994 World Cup till the day he retired was an absolute honour and childhood experience. Even till today every time I was a football match I miss him, I wish I could rewind back in time to watch him play his career out one more time. You will never be forgotten and will always be remembered as the player you were not the penalty you missed ❤
Both those teams had so much talent it's sickening. He was injured should never have taken the pk. There were plenty of guys on the bench that could have sunk that shot.
this man has earned himself a title as one of the GOATs. experienced a hamstring injury that cost him 220 stitches, and he still played on. what a legend. that penalty miss has made the largest dent in his wonderful career, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t one of the goats
what many dont realize the guy had 2 major knee injuries that were career enders... still came back to play a full career. could only fantasize how much greater his legacy would of been.
His talent fascinates me, an extraordinary player who left a legacy far greater than that missed penalty. intelligence, strength, humility, discipline. Roberto Baggio is an absolute football legend. I'm a big fan of this player
As an American, I played soccer as a kid, but never got into watching it on TV, until the 1994 WC. I remember getting off my shift, as a fry cook, posting up at the bar and watching this game. Pretty much started my love affair with the sport, and been a huge fan ever since.
This moment is frozen in time, I remember the whole day, never blamed him, he was amazing the whole tournament, but I wonder what happened that was a real horrendous attempt
It's sad how the media ridiculed this man and his career due to one penalty. Till today you have football talent in the streets and in the high profile tournaments around the globe portraying skills that generations have emulated due to witnessing football greats like Roberto Baggio.
It was 1994 the world cup final! These are the years I became a Brazilian fan! I loved their flair and their skill, Brazil deserved to win the world cup! Viva Braziliano! I am an Australian born Greek! Greeks and Italians are like 2 peas in a pod!
@@KingJaffeJoffer99 well, everyone have an opinion, I think Romario did better. Also, fifa thinks Romario did better. Also, Romario was fundamental to Brazil 94 wc. It’s sad, but Baggio was fundamental for Italy defeat. Great player, but I cannot agree he was the best player in wc under these conditions.
I remember watching this live when I was very young. My second World Cup. My whole family went "oh he missed!"... and I felt very bad for Baggio. He was the captain of the Italy squad too. Will never forget it.
@@all-caps3927 gotze goal nice goal but up there with Baggio missing? Lol 😂 get a pair of glasses bro. Ronaldinho free kick iconic? Well how about all the amazing free kicks in worldcup history which are better than that? Zidane headbutt? Seriously???? Iconic???? Are u on drugs???
Even today I can't forget this moment. I was supporting and crazy about Baggio and I felt sorry for this miss. However through out the tournament he played very very well. This is the effect of world cup final match those who watched can't forget.
El silencio invadió todas las casas de Italia Sobre el campo Roberto Baggio miraba hacia el suelo con los brazos en jarra No era una imagen de derrota. Nunca antes se habio visto una imagen tan soladora en un campo, Socrates se murio envenenado pero Roberto Baggio se murio de pie
Remember being at the game as a kid...I'll never forget an Italian player fell to his knees right after missing his penalty kick. Felt for him (Though was rooting for Brazil)
I remember Italy had impenetrable defense in that whole cup. They were not playing great attack but playing defense and relying on counterattacks to score goal against more balanced opponents. It was Baggio who carried the attack when there was an attack. It is unfair to remember him as a villain, but he should be credited with taking Italy to the finals.
I suppose the instant pain may be universal as to a 10 year old his play off game may seem like its the most important thing in his perception of the world. However, its reasonable to say the kid will grow up realize the lack of importance his play off game on his life and move on without any trauma directly due to that game. On the other hand, A World Cup final is a much more valuable scenario and to a player who has dedicated his whole life for this moment, it will be much harder to cope with failure and understand that his underperformance too is minuscule in the grand scheme of life. I would also argue that the pro footballer who underperforms at that level will have real world consequences for the rest of his life as did Baggio. Ofc Baggio still has a lot to be grateful for, he still had to cope with much greater losses and constant reminders that he missed for the rest of his life. None of this would happen for a 10 year old missing a penalty shoot out.
A phrase attributed to Roberto Baggio says: "Only those who have the courage to take penalties miss penalties." Baggiò took Italy to the final, which he played half serve due to an injury. Before him, Baresi (who returned on the field in record time after a meniscus operation and who offered to take the penalty because someone was needed to give courage to the others) and Massaro had also made mistakes. Even if Baggio had scored, Brazil would still have had a penalty. I think if Baggio took that penalty 10 times, he would score it 9 times out of ten. In his book, Baggio wrote that he still dreams of that penalty at night but the World Cup that he really felt his own, was the one in 1990
I wouldn't cast any stones at Il Divin Codino. It was one bad moment in an otherwise tremendous hall of fame career. There are plenty of legendary players who had such moments.
I watched Roberto Baggio play in 1994 world cup when i was a kid. His goals were top notch performances. Unfortunately he missed the penalty . I was a small fan of his & never seen him in other world cup.
@@TheProtagonist555 I do understand the pain man ! But it's not like he lost a leg or anything, it is just a very devastating defeat. I don't think my little joke was out of the line. Definitely wasn't meant in an insulting way !
If he didn't miss, Brazil would most probably score their last one and win anyway, because there were misses from Baresi and Massaro before that. I don't know why they blame Baggio.
I will never forget this moment. I was 12 years old, sitting on the couch, watching and just crying. I loved him more after than before. I did even a few fights in his good name. Forever in my Heart
True lovers of the beautiful game would rather salute the genius of the man, than to come up with banal quotes like those at the end of this video. Respect, Roberto, for the memories your immense talent and hard work left for us. ⚽️⚽️⚽️🏃🏿♂️
I am italian ... I can't even describe how much Roberto Baggio is loved in Italy .... nonetheless this penalty, for which some night Baggio itself says he can not sleep till nowadays... BAGGIO IS A SYMBOL OF COURAGE ... TALENT ... MINDFULNESS ❤ .... FOR EVER ... OUR GREAT CHAMPION ♥️
I was 11 years old wen i stayed up till 4.30 AM to watch this final game. My heart was all for Italy...then and still now even tho Italy missed 2 WC. I cried my heart out wen Italy lost the finals
despite my sympathy towards baggio, i congratulate brazil aswell, as they dedicated their victory to ayrton senna, another brazilian legend who was an f1 driver and died a few months before (yes i watch f1 too)
Absolutely sad video very sad and that quote he really described it best he possibly could, even though i was not even alive in 1994 I feel sorry for him i watched his goals on that tournament stunning performance great player and its so sad he missed
same thing happend to my friend panos from zürich, he choked in the fifa proclubs cup final... he was the best player on the tournament but at the end missed a penalty...
You're right Praise Fraga, Baggio shouldn't be sad, but you know who should be sad is Rodrygo and Marquinhos who both missed the penalty shots for Brazil against Croatia, and undoubtedly one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history
@Yuri Doe ... Rodrygo and Marquinhos combined don't have half the talent that Baggio had, and that's why in Croatia they've declared Dec 9th as Rodrygo and Marquinhos Day ! ...Haha
Baggio was the only reason Italy made it to that final. He scored decisive goals against Nigeria, Spain and Bulgaria, he played the final on one leg since he got injured in the semi final match and was forced to be taken off. He recovered in time to miss this penalty but he was still the best player of the tournament by far ❤
...and stayed on the pitch the full entire game. 90+overtime+pks on 1 leg. that would never be asked of any player now. shame on coach Sacchi. he should of been used as super sub in 2nd half. or taken out in 83 minute.
baggio and zidane , two of the greatest , they left something on the game , am irish , baggio was legend in 94 and zidane was baggio in 98 just that time the dream came true . Just iconic men playing the beautiful game
If Jorginho didn't miss that penalty against Switzerland. Italy would've qualified for the world cup and that North Macedonia shock wouldn't have happened.
Such disrespect. What a player he was very talented. Broke his knees and still won everything amazing player. Best comebac in football history with Nazario. Baggio was a tremendous player what a legend. Haters hate on penalty but he was not the only one that missed it and also he carried them to the Final as well. Lovely player Baggio. Legend ❤
As a kid I rarely remember any actual soccer games but what I do remember is playing with this icon in video games. One game in particular Super Star Soccer where I think they are portraying this final. Always fun to play with “Galfano” aka Roberto Baggio
most players become richer after kicking ass in the world cup. unless you are saying baggio was an A list hollywood actor, he didnt throw the game, because his emotions in the countless interviews he did after that were genuine

Penalty or no penalty, Baggio is one of the greatest players ever period!
It's sad how the media ridiculed this man and his career due to one penalty. Till today you have football talent in the streets and in the high profile tournaments around the globe portraying skills that generations have emulated due to witnessing football greats like Roberto Baggio.
It was 1994 the world cup final! These are the years I became a Brazilian fan! I loved their flair and their skill, Brazil deserved to win the world cup! Viva Braziliano! I am an Australian born Greek! Greeks and Italians are like 2 peas in a pod!
A god of a player. Best player in the World Cup that year
I feel for Baggio, but Romario was better in 94 wc
@@CarlosHenrique-bf5fs Baggio was the best at that tournament
@@KingJaffeJoffer99 well, everyone have an opinion, I think Romario did better. Also, fifa thinks Romario did better. Also, Romario was fundamental to Brazil 94 wc. It’s sad, but Baggio was fundamental for Italy defeat.
Great player, but I cannot agree he was the best player in wc under these conditions.
El silencio invadió toda las casas de Italia, sobre el campo, Roberto Baggio miraba hacia el suelo con los brazos en jarra
As a Nigerian, I will never forget Bagio for the equalizer and subsequent elimination of Nigerian team from the tournament.
I remember watching this live when I was very young. My second World Cup. My whole family went "oh he missed!"... and I felt very bad for Baggio. He was the captain of the Italy squad too. Will never forget it.
Football is immortality still not forgotten and this happened 10 years before I was born
Greatest European talent ever produced
Probably the most memorable and iconic moment in a World Cup after Maradona's solo goal and hand of God
No definitely not, there's Mario Gotze's final goal in 2014, Ronaldhino's free kick, Zidans Headbutt. They're all more iconic, but this is up there
@@all-caps3927 gotze goal nice goal but up there with Baggio missing? Lol 😂 get a pair of glasses bro.
Ronaldinho free kick iconic? Well how about all the amazing free kicks in worldcup history which are better than that?
Zidane headbutt? Seriously???? Iconic???? Are u on drugs???

If you know Roberto, you'd know this was just a bad moment in his glorious career...what a player!!!
Even today I can't forget this moment. I was supporting and crazy about Baggio and I felt sorry for this miss. However through out the tournament he played very very well. This is the effect of world cup final match those who watched can't forget.
El silencio invadió todas las casas de Italia Sobre el campo Roberto Baggio miraba hacia el suelo con los brazos en jarra No era una imagen de derrota. Nunca antes se habio visto una imagen tan soladora en un campo, Socrates se murio envenenado pero Roberto Baggio se murio de pie
Remember being at the game as a kid...I'll never forget an Italian player fell to his knees right after missing his penalty kick. Felt for him (Though was rooting for Brazil)
I don't remember many penalties but I'll never forget this
Roberto Baggio - Genius From Italy ! Greets From Poland ;-)
I remember Italy had impenetrable defense in that whole cup. They were not playing great attack but playing defense and relying on counterattacks to score goal against more balanced opponents. It was Baggio who carried the attack when there was an attack. It is unfair to remember him as a villain, but he should be credited with taking Italy to the finals.
Still one of the best attacking midfielders of all time,Matheus and maradona.baggio.messi,Zidane.outrageous
It doesn't matter the age. The pain is universal. My 9-10 year old kids team experience the same thing during a playoff game.
I suppose the instant pain may be universal as to a 10 year old his play off game may seem like its the most important thing in his perception of the world. However, its reasonable to say the kid will grow up realize the lack of importance his play off game on his life and move on without any trauma directly due to that game. On the other hand, A World Cup final is a much more valuable scenario and to a player who has dedicated his whole life for this moment, it will be much harder to cope with failure and understand that his underperformance too is minuscule in the grand scheme of life. I would also argue that the pro footballer who underperforms at that level will have real world consequences for the rest of his life as did Baggio. Ofc Baggio still has a lot to be grateful for, he still had to cope with much greater losses and constant reminders that he missed for the rest of his life. None of this would happen for a 10 year old missing a penalty shoot out.
Bro just compared the World Cup finals to a u10 playoff game 💀
Oh no they really don't, I assure you.
Don't cry dear Baggio, we love you forever.
A superbly talented player who was a class apart….the only way italy was in 94 finals was coz of ROBERTO BAGGIO!!!!
ROBERTO BAGGIO GENIUS FOOTBALLER HE WAZ ONE OF THE BEST FOOTBALLERZ ever
he’s a legend still..❤
I watched that live when I was kid. I couldn't believe it and I was a Brazilian fan
We will take our Revenge, never liked unfinished business and I won't start doing so now
A phrase attributed to Roberto Baggio says: "Only those who have the courage to take penalties miss penalties." Baggiò took Italy to the final, which he played half serve due to an injury. Before him, Baresi (who returned on the field in record time after a meniscus operation and who offered to take the penalty because someone was needed to give courage to the others) and Massaro had also made mistakes. Even if Baggio had scored, Brazil would still have had a penalty. I think if Baggio took that penalty 10 times, he would score it 9 times out of ten. In his book, Baggio wrote that he still dreams of that penalty at night but the World Cup that he really felt his own, was the one in 1990
I wouldn't cast any stones at Il Divin Codino. It was one bad moment in an otherwise tremendous hall of fame career. There are plenty of legendary players who had such moments.
I watched Roberto Baggio play in 1994 world cup when i was a kid. His goals were top notch performances. Unfortunately he missed the penalty . I was a small fan of his & never seen him in other world cup.
One of Italy's greatest soccer players I would even say on par if not more talented than Ronaldo
Legends say... Baggio is still standing on that same spot 28 years later...
Not funny.. You should try to understand the pain he went through that day..
@@TheProtagonist555 I do understand the pain man ! But it's not like he lost a leg or anything, it is just a very devastating defeat.
I don't think my little joke was out of the line. Definitely wasn't meant in an insulting way !
@@GarnetTillAlexandros Sure bro..
If he didn't miss, Brazil would most probably score their last one and win anyway, because there were misses from Baresi and Massaro before that. I don't know why they blame Baggio.
I will never forget this moment. I was 12 years old, sitting on the couch, watching and just crying. I loved him more after than before. I did even a few fights in his good name. Forever in my Heart
It's not just Baggio, every Italian fan died that day.. but it's not him to blame! Without him italy wouldn't see any final that year! He was the best
Most iconic penalty miss ever.
Even if he scored and brazil scored the next one, brazil would have won too so stfu
True lovers of the beautiful game would rather salute the genius of the man, than to come up with banal quotes like those at the end of this video. Respect, Roberto, for the memories your immense talent and hard work left for us. ⚽️⚽️⚽️🏃🏿♂️
I think everyone felt sad for him, no one ever blamed or castrated him for that,
I am italian ... I can't even describe how much Roberto Baggio is loved in Italy .... nonetheless this penalty, for which some night Baggio itself says he can not sleep till nowadays...
BAGGIO IS A SYMBOL OF COURAGE ... TALENT ... MINDFULNESS ❤ .... FOR EVER ... OUR GREAT CHAMPION ♥️
Reminds me of Harry Kane yesterday. Amazing.
True but (1) Harry Kane couldn’t lace Baggio’s boots and (2) this was the trophy on the line, instead of a quarterfinal.
@@InfiniteDroidArmies Indeed. What a twat, Kane ffs!
What about Saka, Rashford and Sancho? They reminded you of what?
@@ahnaflfc369 Christmas come early.
@@ahnaflfc369 They remind me of my play.
I saw the quarterfinal Italy vs Spain when I was 10 years old. I loved Baggio.
Should technically have been re-taken as the Brazil keeper jumped off his line before the kick was made.
I was 11 years old wen i stayed up till 4.30 AM to watch this final game. My heart was all for Italy...then and still now even tho Italy missed 2 WC.
I cried my heart out wen Italy lost the finals
The pressure on him is insanely high, don't blame him
At least did not suffer the same fate as Escobar
Facts
Andres Escobar...
Really, USA 94 is an episode Colombia wants to forget
despite my sympathy towards baggio, i congratulate brazil aswell, as they dedicated their victory to ayrton senna, another brazilian legend who was an f1 driver and died a few months before (yes i watch f1 too)
Bit like kane's terrible miss tonight. The difference is roberto Baggio was a great footballer.
Absolutely sad video very sad and that quote he really described it best he possibly could, even though i was not even alive in 1994 I feel sorry for him i watched his goals on that tournament stunning performance great player and its so sad he missed
Rumour has it that Baggios 94 ball and Kanes 2022 ball are now quietly orbiting the earth together
Lmfao
Lmao
same thing happend to my friend panos from zürich, he choked in the fifa proclubs cup final... he was the best player on the tournament but at the end missed a penalty...
he shouldn't be sad, here in Brazil he is a idol!! Cheers
You don’t need to make fun of him to celebrate your country
@@Mario-uw9ip it's just a joke man, football is about that, glories, heroes, villains and rivalries.
You're right Praise Fraga, Baggio shouldn't be sad, but you know who should be sad is Rodrygo and Marquinhos who both missed the penalty shots for Brazil against Croatia, and undoubtedly one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history
@@claudiodefrancesca4032 atleast It wasnt on a world Cup final, but still, we love Baggio here on brazil!!! Thanks Robert Baggio! 😊😊😊😊
@Yuri Doe ... Rodrygo and Marquinhos combined don't have half the talent that Baggio had, and that's why in Croatia they've declared Dec 9th as Rodrygo and Marquinhos Day ! ...Haha
Baggio was the only reason Italy made it to that final. He scored decisive goals against Nigeria, Spain and Bulgaria, he played the final on one leg since he got injured in the semi final match and was forced to be taken off. He recovered in time to miss this penalty but he was still the best player of the tournament by far ❤
...and stayed on the pitch the full entire game. 90+overtime+pks on 1 leg. that would never be asked of any player now. shame on coach Sacchi. he should of been used as super sub in 2nd half. or taken out in 83 minute.
baggio and zidane , two of the greatest , they left something on the game , am irish , baggio was legend in 94 and zidane was baggio in 98 just that time the dream came true . Just iconic men playing the beautiful game
If Jorginho didn't miss that penalty against Switzerland. Italy would've qualified for the world cup and that North Macedonia shock wouldn't have happened.
Such disrespect. What a player he was very talented. Broke his knees and still won everything amazing player. Best comebac in football history with Nazario. Baggio was a tremendous player what a legend. Haters hate on penalty but he was not the only one that missed it and also he carried them to the Final as well. Lovely player Baggio. Legend ❤
0:22 I'm happy in this moment because I'm brazilian but I also feel pitty for italy
We are humans ,remember that
positive competition
Baggio is the last great Playmaker, real playmaker 😎
Sócrates murió envenenado, pero Baggio murió de pie.
😞🍷
Baggip willed italy alone that whole tournament from centre... he was a total stud . nothing to criticize him for..
Italy forgave him but could he forgive himself?
One chance in his life and he failed. If he was a coach, probably...
Il divino codino per l'éternita , le meilleurs touché de balle de tout les temps.... Hélas trop de blessures♥♥♥♥♥♥
Where is the dying part?

@@syl0x701 HAHAHAHAHA
As a kid I rarely remember any actual soccer games but what I do remember is playing with this icon in video games. One game in particular Super Star Soccer where I think they are portraying this final. Always fun to play with “Galfano” aka Roberto Baggio
I was fan of Brazil but admired baggio
Football is really terrific。
Keeper off his line
Unbelievable, not even kicking the ball to the net, he just gave away the champion ship.
If he scored that penalty.. the world would know the name Baggio like Maradona
If he scores, he could still lose 😂 If your mother had wheels, you would be a bicycle, keep going?
Baggio is like a combo of Zidane + Lauther Matteus + Ineista + Xavi my man was the whole package

It was a fixed match. Baggio became more richer after that match.
most players become richer after kicking ass in the world cup.
unless you are saying baggio was an A list hollywood actor, he didnt throw the game, because his emotions in the countless interviews he did after that were genuine
@@Freedom_84 I am just kidding. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

World cup is not for everyone. Hardwork and talent is not enough. Team chemistry is much much more important and luck also plays a big part.
