The Italian Cup. Sampdoria and Napoli met at the final and Diego Maradona finished second again. Napoli won the first leg 1-0, but in the second leg was practically destroyed by Sampdoria – 0-4.
Maradona may have been the best player in the world, but he was not winning many trophies with his European clubs. Napoli finished second in both Cup and championship.
Sampdoria was getting better and better – this season was their best so far. They won their 3rd Cup and it was also second in a row. And the team was not at its peak yet, there was more to come for sure.
