Kits Italy World Cup 1950

Italy were the reigning world champions it had been 12 years since they won the title and their new generation of players had been decimated with the Superga air disaster in May 1949 in which almost the entire Torino football team, the backbone of the national side, was killed. The loss of ten of the players of Torino (the winners of the previous five Serie A titles) out of the eleven constituting the initial line-up for the national team. In the event, Italy did
participate but they traveled to Rio de Janeiro by sea. With nothing to play for but pride, Italy completed the tournament a second place finish in the group.

For the first time in the World Cup, players' shirts had team numbers (1-11) on the back. Only the Italy blue shirts only was worn on the whole tournament. The number 5 jersey worn by Carlo Parola (Juventus FC).

Recently, I'm posted the Uruguay team kits, and for today the trainers shirt.

Uruguay is World Cup Champions for the 2nd time (last time in 1930). Jules Rimet has already prepared a speech in Portuguese to congratulate the winners,
whom expected to be Brazil. With their result and celebration trounced, the organizers of the World Cup left Rimet alone on the field, holding the cup in his hands without any fancy ceremony to back him up, Rimet had to actually call out for Uruguayan captain Varela in order to present him with the trophy.

The Celeste began in Group 4 along with Bolivia and noted the history one of the greatest knockouts in the World Cup; thrash Bolivia 8-0. Highlight for Míguez Ghiggia who scored hatrick.

The 1950 FIFA World Cup, held in Brazil from 24 June to 16 July, was the fourth FIFA World Cup. In the final match, Brazil started scored with Friaça goal,
but Uruguay drew with Schiaffino and Ghiggia goal make a silence at the Maracana, to noted the highest Brazilian football tragedy in World Cups.
