Toto Schillaci

Day -66 WorldCup2018

It's been said before but it's worth repeating. No talk of Italia '90 is complete without a mention of one of the most unlikely stars: Toto Schillaci. The man who came from nowhere to score goal after goal for Italy, the little guy with enough passion in his body to fill the frame of somebody many times his size, the footballer who scrapped his way to the top, to almost become italy's ultimate hero. He was a joy to watch just for how much every goal seemed to mean to him.

The biggest disappointment was not seeing him lift the World Cup. Toto, at least we have the memories.
