I remember my mam bought me the danone Juve jersey from 94 season, I was delighted for years eveytime i put it on.

Saturday was the recap show. Sunday 2pm was the live fixture. Italian football back then was untouchable

This, and championship manager 9798 made up my nineties childhood!

Gooooolazo! Just came into my head so had to find this awesome theme again. Football Italia, GamesMaster, Championship Manager, WWF/WCW, Nintendo on the Fiorentina Kit! Such awesome times growing up. I love the 90s, best decade ever.

When you heard this on Saturday mornings, you knew shit was about to get real!

Tbf I like lots of people thought that it was “gol lazio” This program partly contributed to me learning Italian! I can say that what’s said is “golazo” which essentially means amazing goal! James Richardson was the perfect presenter for this channel 4 classic from the 90’s!

Awesome programme. Loved the bit when the referees pranced on screen in sync to the music beat. Brings me back to my youth does this show, Saturday & Sunday watched it religiously. James Richardson was epic presenter.Would love to see this be re-instated one day to channel 4.

I was too young to appreciate the sunday games when i was 11, I swear every game was Milan beating an understrength Brescia side 1-0 and me and my dad would just fall asleep

2019 and i STILL MISS GAZZETTA ITALIA Saturday morning...I want that bald guy sipping espresso over the Italian back pages AGAIN!! I miss it

It was in the 1990's, as no other league came close. The quality, the players, the spectacles, the stadiums - especially the cathedral-like San Siro. Can still picture the tickertape, the massive banners and flags, and of course the noise of firecrackers going off....and those flares! By comparison, the premiership was nowhere, while La Liga was distinctly second to Serie A. Someone supposedly threw a lambretta from the top tier of the San Siro back in the early 90's......was this true!??

Rob Tyman answering your question from all of 5 years ago, yes I believe it to be true. I read a book years ago called 'Calcio' and that story is in it. From memory it was a protest by Inter ultras against the owners at the time. They somehow got it into the stadium.

match of the day music is good but football italia is the best I watch this video so many times never gets old never will

Wish this was back on TV, loved this show :)

Yep we were, English football was nowhere near Serie A in the 90s and we had this absolute banger ringing out every weekend. I was a kid in the 90s and used to watch this religiously. Everyone had an Italian team at school, mine was Lazio just because I am from Manchester and they play in the same colour as us. Plus everyone thought it was “Goal Lazio!” at the end of this intro, so scoring on the playground and shouting that was class.

Gazza moving to Italy started it all off.

I remember the AC Milan 5 - 3 Lazio game as one of my early memories of the live Sunday match. Signori scored a hat trick but Van Basten, Gullit, Rijkaard & the mighty rosseneri still came out on top.

The single most amazing intro theme tune to any football program in the world 🌍 ever 😎 James Richardson = Greatest job in the world!

Golden age of TV Football. The live game was perfect hangover TV.

I bet James Richardson to this day has people shout golazo! at him in the street.

Nothing will ever beat football in the 90s

Used to sing this all the time when I scored playing football at school. Nothing touched Italian footie in the 90s

It was in seen as the best league in England and by all of Europe in the 1990's until about 1999 when Dortmund, Man Utd and Madrid had all knocked out Juventus and won the Champions League and the dominance of Italian teams finally died in 1999.

It was beautiful at the time, so many lads grew up with it.

Gazzetta was really the show. Platt was criminally underrated in England. Look at his goalscoring ratio everywhere he went and for England. For a midfielder it's unreal, and in Italy too against tough defences. Sunday matches were a bit boring as a kid cos you didn't really get it, but didn't stop me watching my Roma - Giannini, Totti, Aldair, Balbo, Rizzitelli (every time I say that name I think of Kenneth Wolstenholme saying it). I grew up on this and although I loved Platt and the Sampdoria kit, I just clicked with Roma. Weird. I really wish C4 could get some highlights package, even if it's on a Sunday morning (Going against Soccer AM which still gets a decent share, no matter how much it's gone down hill wouldn't be clever) from the last week and just talk Italian football, against all those Morning kitchen programs, this would be something worth watching. I guess we all need to love the fact we grew up with it in the first place! :)

Used to get the gazetta football magazine in print start of every season for the squad listings to update my sensi soccer Happy days !

Never missed Italian football on Sundays on channel four.

Once upon a time, Italian football was the absolute pinnacle league in the world. What happened?

totally agree, I was only surprised because imho premier league football was and will always be the top notch, even during the eurocup ban. didn't recon that during the good days of italian football, it had even admirers in the UK

scarafoo Sky launched in the UK in 89'. Before then there was only 4 channels on UK TV. Sky were subscription so not many had it. They showed foreign leagues like Serie A, Bundesliga etc but like I say few had access to it. The only football you got live in the UK was World Cups, Euros, some big league games, the cup games and finals. Sky bought over the English 1st division TV rights in 93' and relaunched it as the Premiership. They gave up the Italian and other foreign leagues. Channel 4 bought them because Gazza had gone to Lazio and everyone was interested to see how he'd get on. 3 million people would tune in every Sunday because Italy had the best players at the time. It was much slower with less goals but more skillful. You could finally see all these great players you had only read about before in magazines. The novelty wore off after a few years but the memories remain. Channel 4 also had a really fresh approach. They did loads of sketches and jokes during the show. The football analysis on Sky and BBC is always very serious.

God we were blessed as kids and teens in the 90’s.

Omg remember this as a kid. C4 90s ❤

ahhhhhhhh, I loved this era , (still love Italian football to this day ) i miss careca, maradona, luca tentoni , Maspero , players like that

They should bring it back my childhood memories come flooding back 80s kid raised in the 90s missed them days

Twas more fun in the '90s!!❤ Ciao, Bella!!

Spent many a weekend as a kid locked into this

The peak of football

Good old days

Fabrizio ravanelli!!!!! One of my most favourite players the silver fox!!!!

"Golazo"- it says the speaker on that game called Superstar Soccer. And then I realized: oh, this voice comes from right there lol.

back when they still knew how to make decent tv programs

that tackle at 0:26. Centre halfs wet dream back in the day

A golden age of tv football

I saw Casiraghi in a dentist in Rome once when i was a kid - living out there. Brutto Laziale. Great show - tune of my youth.
