Description from Wikipedia:
Roberto Baggio (born 18 February 1967) is a retired Italian footballer, among the most technically gifted and popular players in the world throughout the 1990s and early 2000s.
He played for the Italian national team in three World Cups, and is the only Italian player ever to score in three World Cups. He helped reach second place at the 1994 World Cup and third place at the 1990 World Cup.
