Match overview
Italy secured third place at the 1990 World Cup with a 2-1 victory over England in Bari. Roberto Baggio opened the scoring in the second half, but David Platt equalised for England. Salvatore Schillaci then converted a penalty to restore Italy’s lead and claim the tournament’s Golden Boot. Both teams played with determination despite the disappointment of missing the final, and the match was played in a lively atmosphere.
Trivia
Salvatore Schillaci’s goal in this match made him the top scorer of the 1990 World Cup with six goals. The third-place playoff was notable for its attacking intent, and Roberto Baggio’s performance further enhanced his growing reputation on the international stage.
