Match overview
Italy’s solitary goal by Schillaci settled a cagey contest in Rome. Hosts maintained defensive solidity while Ireland, vibrant under Charlton, created few clear chances.
Trivia
Schillaci finished the tournament as top scorer. Ireland’s qualification to this quarter-final was their best World Cup performance until 2016.
