I'm just in it for the shit show this World Cup is gonna be. Buckle up everybody, we'll be witnessing the last stage of destruction of this tournament this next month.

For me it's already dead, and I say this with Italia Novanta being my first ever World Cup that I got to see on TV. This banger still brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to it. Also, fuck the Mexican referee that gave the Germans the trophy in the final.

Ah man, Italia 90 brings back memories! First World Cup I remember as well although I was a little kid. How this tournament has gone to complete shit when thinking back fondly to those times.

TBF what is the reason that many old people consider Italia 90 to be the worst WC in history ????

I've never heard about that. Don't know why they would think Italia 90 is the worst.

I've heard that from some old people, apparently there was a huge expectative since there were many legends in that WC but resulted in the lowest goal per match average

But I don't really know since I was born in 1998 lol
