This historic jersey was worn by the Azzurri during the 2002 FIFA World Cup in South Korea and Japan, featuring the revolutionary Kappa “Kombat” skin-tight design with high-stretch Lycra to deter shirt-pulling. Italy’s journey that year was marked by high drama and controversy, notably in their Round of 16 match against South Korea, where they were eliminated by a golden goal amidst multiple disputed officiating decisions. This specific jersey features the legendary captain Paolo Maldini, who played every minute of the tournament, setting a then-record for most minutes played in World Cup history. The 2002 World Cup marked the end of an era for the iconic defender, as it was his final international tournament before retiring from the national team with 126 caps.
