Speaking of the 1990 World Cup in Italy, I am afraid that the fans who have the impression are already middle-aged. Argentina in the summer of Italy were by no means favourites to win the title, but they ended up finishing runners-up. In addition to Maradona, this blue and white army has two other heroes, they are the "son of the wind" Kanigia and the super door god Goyechea.
This comparison chart makes people lament the passage of time, Goyechea and Canigia in the picture above hugging each other to celebrate another victory, while the two in the picture below are already a little old. Reunited after many years, we can reminisce about the glorious moments of the old days together. Indeed, at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, they were Maradona's best partners. Argentina was able to magically reach the final thanks to both of them.
Let's start with Canigia, whose nickname "Child of the Wind" perfectly exemplifies his characteristics. With a ghostly movement on the front line and lightning speed, Canigia can instantly shake off opposing defenders. The most classic moment was the 1/8 final of the 90 World Cup, where Argentina faced the top favourites Brazil, and were suppressed by the Samba Army, who had almost no chance of winning. But Brazil's only negligence in the midfield was captured by Maradona, who made him the king of the day.
When Maradona attracts multiple bags, he can deliver world-class assists. At this time, the luck of the Argentine team is that there is Canigia next to the old horse. It was he who found the only front line and calmly shot the ball into the city guarded by Tafarel. So Brazil bid farewell to Italy without even reaching the quarterfinals. In the broadcast footage at that time, a Brazilian girl fan bit her finger and shed tears, which made many Chinese fans feel distressed.
In the 1990 World Cup opener, defending champion Argentina lost to Cameroon in an upset, and the main goalkeeper Pompido made a major mistake that led to conceding the goal. Pompido was injured unexpectedly, and Argentina had to send in substitute goalkeeper Goyechea in the second round. But what I didn't expect was that Goyechea became famous in the first battle. In the knockout stages, the substitute saved consecutive penalties to knock out the former Yugoslavia and hosts Italy.
By the final, Bremmer's final penalty was in fact Goyechea had already judged the right direction. Had Bremer hesitated, angled a little more or slowed down, perhaps Goyechea would have been able to make a magic save on a penalty and Argentina might even have won the World Cup again. Although they finished runners-up, it was a miracle for Argentina in 1990, and Goyechea became one of the biggest contributors to the Blue and White.
Thirty-two years later, Maradona is dead, and so are Goyechea and Canigia. Youth is only a few World Cups and for every player and every fan, time will also pass inadvertently. The upcoming Qatar World Cup, which stars will leave what classic pictures, many years later, we will definitely miss this late autumn and early winter, the World Cup story that happened in Qatar.
