REVIEW: Before the Premier League and multi-million pound salaries, in England “football” was a dirty word. The game was in disgrace, the fans were hooligans, the nation, it seemed, was all played out. Then there was Italia ’90 – The World Cup – a shot a redemption.
This was no ordinary World Cup and ordinary time. The manager, Sir Bobby Robson, was under intense media scrutiny, his team described as “donkeys”. Yet over six short weeks, through their heroic exploits they united a nation, coming within a heartbeat of reaching the World Cup final..
This award-winning film features match-action – from Platt’s last-gasp winner against Belgium, to the silky skills of Gaza and the cool finishing of Lineker – and previously unseen footage behind-the-scene footage. This is the definitive story of England’s greatest adventure on foreign soil…so far.
SPECIAL FEATURES: *Behind the scenes *Director’s commentary *Interview with Pete Davies.
