Welcome to Italia1990.com. The aim of this website is to collect all knowledge and analyse every aspect of the 1990 FIFA World Cup, which was held in Italy between 8 June and 8 July 1990. The website is a long-term project and a work in progress, as previously published material is regularly revised.

The website publishes everything worth to know not only about the World Cup tournament itself, but also its build-up, including the qualification stage. The website was launched in July 2016, and we estimate to complete the project by 2031. We will only begin publishing match reports from the 1990 World Cup tournament when all qualifiers have been covered. We are currently (June 2020) rounding off work on Group 5 in the UEFA qualification, and have started work on the CAF and CONMEBOL zones.

Two writers are currently engaged in the project, kaltz (@1990qual) and domizio (@1990worldcup). You can also contact us through our form (supplementary information is very welcome).
