Definitive story of one of the most extraordinary periods in the history of the Italian national football team, contextualised with a journey through Italy’s footballing past.

What on earth was going on?
Delving into Italian football’s past to make sense of the present, this compelling book includes:
Cinque Anni tells the tale of how it all happened – the agony and ecstasy, the tears and the laughter. It’s a must-read not only for fans of Italian football, but for anyone fascinated by the fine line that can separate winning and losing.
