Attendance 31,823
On this day in 1990 I was at the FIFA World Cup in Italy watching a clash between two Northern European countries Scotland & Sweden.
Like the first World Cup match the venue was Genoa which meant another 10 hour round trip by coach from our base in Rimini.
Many of the Swedish fans were also based in Rimini and mixed brilliantly with their Scottish counterparts.
This time Scotland recorded a rare World Cup finals win.
Match report:
Personal note:
- This was the 2nd match I attended at the 1990 World Cup Finals
- This was the 17th Scotland match I had attended
- 3rd match attended on Mainland Europe
