00:16Paolo Rossi was born on September 23, 1956 in the village of Santa Russia,
00:24in the province of Prato, in the state of Tuscany, Italy.
00:29He fell in love with football at a young age.
00:33In 1966-1967, when he was still 10 years old, he officially started playing football at the Santa Lucia Football Club.
00:43Then he was transferred to the Florence Catholic Virtus San Michel team.
00:49In 1972-1973, he was won by Luciano Moggi and Italo Arlaudi, the world giants, by Juventus' managers.
01:00Paolo Rossi was rented to the Como team when he was in the Juventus youth team in 1975-1976.
01:09In 1976-1977, he was transferred from Juventus to Vicenza.
01:16In 1978-1979, he was transferred to Vicenza for 2.65 million Italian liras.
01:25Until 1980-1981, Rossi, who played for Perugia and Vicenza,
01:32was transferred to Juventus again for 1.75 million Italian liras in 1981-1982.

01:48In the first league, he scored 24 goals in 1977-1978 and was the best scorer.
01:57Rossi, who scored 3 goals in the 1978 World Cup in Argentina,
02:03became the best second player in the tournament after Mario Kempes, who won the golden ball.
02:13Rossi, who climbed to the top of his career with his black and white Juventus jersey,
02:20enjoyed many cups.

02:47was sentenced to 3 years in prison.
02:51Due to this punishment, Rossi could not wear the Italian national team uniform in the 1980 European Championship.
02:59Later, his sentence was reduced to 2 years,
03:03so that Rossi would have a chance to play in the 1982 World Cup.
03:10Rossi, who played a major role in Italy's winning of the 1982 World Cup after 44 years,
03:16established a throne of volunteers in Italy after this tournament.
03:20Rossi became the goal king by scoring 6 goals in the 1982 World Cup,
03:26where he became a star.
03:28In this tournament, he also won the titles of golden ball and golden shoe.
03:34He is the only player to win these three titles in a single tournament.
03:40This record has not yet been achieved.

03:48Italy wore the national football team uniform 48 times
03:52and scored a total of 20 goals in these matches.
