Roberto Baggio & His Italian Diary: 100 Vintage Photos

An assorted collection of 100 rare and vintage photographs of Roberto Baggio, any football romantic will cherish forever – a visual Biography of the Divine Ponytail during his glory days in Juventus, Milan, Internazionale and Azzurri colours.

Roberto Baggio is one of the world’s finest football players ever. Winner of multiple Serie A and UEFA Cup medals to his name, Baggio is unfortunately remembered for just a momentary lapse when his penalty landed in the stands of the Rose Bowl in the final of the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Baggio has been misunderstood at multiple layers within Italian football but he remained a thorough professional and an icon of calmness, true to the path of Buddhism he chose to follow. To celebrate the 49th birthday of the genius of Roberto Baggio, the divine ponytail, Goalden Times presents 100 vintage moments of ll Divin Codino capturing his numerous emotions through this visual journey. Happy Birthday Legend!
