Lippi was born in Viareggio, a seaside town in Tuscany, Italy.

The soccer career wasn't very glamorous, only culminating in a career with Sampdoria.

He began his coaching career in 1985, taking over the Italian C team Pontedera, and four years later moved to Serie A team Cesena, and later stayed in Atalanta and Empoli, respectively, his coaching career in Juventus team made a breakthrough, and in 1995 he led the "Old Lady" to win the League Championship in his first year of taking over Juventus. In his first year at Juventus in 1995, he led the Old Lady to the league title. He went on to lead Juve to two consecutive league title defenses and the European Championship in 1996, when Juve eliminated Dutch side Ajax on penalties at Rome's Stadio Olimpico.

He left Juventus in 1999 to take charge of Inter, where he stayed for more than a season before returning to Turin to guide Juventus to the 2002 and 2003 Serie A titles.

1. Vittorio Pozzo (1929-1948) Undoubtedly, Pozzo was the most successful of all Italian national team coaches. Under his coaching, the Italian national soccer team won two consecutive World Cups in '34 and '38.

It turns out that in 1912, Pozzo, who was 26 years old at the time, became the manager of the Italian national team, and is now the record holder for the youngest manager of the Italian national team, but that time was rather short-lived. Pozzo officially became Italy's manager in 1929. He led the Italian team to win the 1934 World Cup and the 1938 World Cup.

2. Helenio Herrera (1966) After the Italian national soccer team's defeat at the 1966 World Cup, the Italian Football Federation (FIFA) was prepared to hire Herrera to become Italy's head coach.

This is also considered the first foreign coach in the history of the Italian national soccer team. But Herrera due to busy affairs in Inter Milan, basically in the national team is to hang a title, the actual are operated by Valcareggi.

3、Bearzot (Enzo Bearzot) (1977-1986) was originally the head coach of the Italian youth team, after Bernardini left the post of the national team due to health reasons, Bearzot became the successor. He led the national team to the 1978 World Cup.

Italy under the command of Beazotte was the youngest team in the World Cup and also the best performing team, but due to inexperience, it lost to Holland and Brazil and only finished fourth.

But in the 1982 World Cup, Beazotte led the Italian national team to the World Cup title, overcoming favorites Argentina, Brazil, Poland, and the Federal Republic of Germany.

4, Marcello Lippi (2008-2010) Lippi's coaching ability is obvious to everyone, I have to say that the Silver Fox Lippi is a monument that can not be crossed in the history of the Italian team manager.
