The pinnacle of the match, we witnessed the most sobering phase of Baggio's career. He, in
World Cup
In the flames of the final, he missed the decisive penalty kick, and the scene is still vivid in my mind: Baggio's lost figure in the game video, the off-target shot. Analyzed from an objective point of view, Baggio's star quality seems to be slightly insufficient, at the peak of the moment, he personally gave away the Cup of Hercules, and in the downturn, he was not able to return to the top of the football world by virtue of the ability to adjust.
If one were to search for a player in modern soccer with a similar temperament to Baggio on the field, England star Kane would perhaps best represent the modern version of Baggio. With their all-round technical ability and central position in the national team, the similarity between Baggio and Kane is self-evident. Maradona has always been the benchmark for all top players to pursue, and if every top player could reach Maradona's height, then the soccer god might lose some of his "mystique". Admittedly, not everyone has the ability to compete with Maradona, but Pacquiao in some moments, did show with Maradona comparable strength!
