Listened to a great discussion about maradona in Naples last night and this game was mentioned,completely forgot that this game was played there. for those too young to remember,Italy played Argentina in the world cup semi final in Italy but unfortunately for them the game was in Naples where Diego was/is a God. Neapolitans wouldn't be the most patriotic Italians at the best of times anyway so most of them were up for Argentina. it wasn't long after this that Diego tested positive for cocaine for the first time.

Argentina pulled out their best performance of the tournament that night in Naples, then disgraced themselves in the final.
