The 1980s were one of the most successful, dramatic and unforgettable decades in Juventus history. This sixth volume chronicles an extraordinary era defined by legendary players, historic triumphs and events that forever shaped the identity of the club.
From the arrival of Michel Platini to the conquest of the European Cup, through the exploits of Zbigniew Boniek, Paolo Rossi, Gaetano Scirea, Marco Tardelli and Antonio Cabrini, Juventus established itself as one of the dominant forces in world football. These were the years of Serie A titles, the Cup Winners' Cup, the UEFA Super Cup, the Intercontinental Cup and unforgettable battles against Liverpool, Real Madrid, Porto, Barcelona and many of Europe's elite clubs.
Yet the decade was also marked by the tragedy of Heysel, a wound that never fully healed and transformed the club's greatest triumph into one of the darkest nights in the history of sport.
Through contemporary match reports, complete statistics, results, line-ups, rare anecdotes and first-hand memories from the protagonists, this volume retraces every season from 1980 to 1990: from the golden years of Giovanni Trapattoni's Juventus to the rebirth under Dino Zoff, culminating in the UEFA Cup and Coppa Italia triumphs of 1990.
A compelling journey through the decade that cemented Juventus among the legends of international football.
