Official Diadora Italy home football shirt from the 1993 international season. Complete with #19 on the front & back of the shirt in original flock lettering.

Although this jersey is essentially the same as the 1993/94 design, this earlier version (1993) features the Diadora pattern repeated throughout the material (rather than the Italian crest). Later 1993/94 versions featured the FIGC (Italian football federation) crest repeated in the material, instead.

The difference between the two is probably due to the 1993 jersey having been designed before the crest was updated in 1993. Despite the new crest featuring on the chest, it was likely too late to include it in pattern of the material.

Condition of this classic football jersey is 9/10 - Superb (see photos).

Italy hosted the World Cup for the second time in 1990. The Italian attack featured talented forwards Salvatore Schillaci and a young Roberto Baggio. Despite being favourites to win, playing nearly all of their matches in Rome and not conceding a goal in their first five matches, Italy lost in the semi-final to defending champion Argentina in Naples, losing 4–3 on penalty kicks following a 1–1 draw after extra time, Schillaci's first half opener having been equalised in the second half by Claudio Caniggia's header for Argentina. 

Aldo Serena missed the final penalty kick (with Roberto Donadoni also having his penalty saved by goalkeeper Sergio Goycochea). Italy went on to defeat England 2–1 in the third place match in Bari, with Schillaci scoring the winning goal on a penalty to become the tournament's top scorer with 6 goals. Italy then failed to qualify for the 1992 European Championship.
