Paul Parker hopes an eye-opening new documentary on the Italia 90 World Cup can further extend the legacy of the tournament more than three decades on.
The former England defender, 58, started five games as Sir Bobby Robson’s side memorably reached the semi-finals before crashing out to Germany on penalties.
Italia 90 still holds a storied status in English footballing folklore and ahead of this year’s World Cup in Qatar, a new Channel 4 documentary is helping shine a light on the tournament in the form of a three-part series.
