1986..Don't recall much as I was too young to understand football. All I can remember is my father screaming Maradona Maradona Maradona....Goooooool

1990..Was fortunate enough to watch few games at the Stadium.
Loved how Mila robbed showing off Colombian goalkeeper Higuita and scored in the empty net. Argentina Italy match was just mind blowing and very intense. From that day, I have become an admirer of Maldini and the Azzurris..Final was simply a big scam and too hard to endure.

1994...Escobar. how tragic it was to see a player being killed due to his own goal against USA. It was really heartbreaking. Was rooting for Italy. Again a penalty shoot out deprived Italy from winning the cup. Hate when Brazil wins :

1998...Brazil jite nai thanx to Zidane. :

2002: Don't know or understand how could Korea went that far. Few games were extremely controversial. I remember Maldini got kicked in the head by a Korean player but the referee totally overlooked it. And few fouls were committed in D box but penalty was not given.

2006..Italy wins it...FINALLY.

2010..All I can remember is Wakka Wakka yeah yehh.
