1934:
Final
There is a very large crowd for
the final. Italy are the home team. Fascist dictator
Mussolini is in the stadium. They are expected to win
easily
But the Final starts badly for
Italy. They play poorly in the first half. Perhaps it's the
pressure of being favourites. Everyone expects Italy to
win. Defeat is not an option
The crowd becomes increasingly quiet. Then in the 70th
minute Puc scores a shock goal. Czechoslovakia take the
lead! Is there going to be a great upset?
Italy attack but Czechoslovakia hold on until the 81st
minute when Orsi equalises. The game moves into the
extra-time.
In the 95th minute Schiavio finally put Italy in the lead.
They go on to win 2-1 after extra time.
