Hi Team! The first World Cup I remember watching from the begining to end and knowing the players, teams, moves, etc, etc, etc, was the 1990 World Cup in Italy, also known as Italia '90.
Besides watching England get knocked out in the Semi Finals, seeing Gazza cry, and West Germany lifting the World Cup, I will remember it for celebrations. An unknown Cameroonian called Roger Milla, scored for his country and showed his passion for his country by dancing at the corner flag and I think for the next 6 months after Italia '90 all you would see is kids running to the corner flag to dance in celebration each time they scored.
