Standing in line at the consulate doesn't erase your right to citizenship.

The Italian Supreme Court has confirmed that a consular blockade is legal grounds for legal action.

• Were you unable to schedule an appointment at the consulate?
• Is the process stalled or poorly managed?
• Maternal lineage?
• Incomplete documentation?

See if there is still a solution.

Among the Italians, the expectation is that Baresi, Albertini, Zola, Apolloni, Benarrivo, Berti, Costacurta, Casiraghi, Evani, Mussi, Massaro and Tassotti, led by Arrigo Sacchi, will be present.

Furthermore, the CBF reported that the Italy team will feature players who wore the Azzurri shirt in other seasons, such as Schillaci, Panucci, Vierchowod, Braglia, Eranio and Rossi.

The 1994 World Cup final made history after former Italian attacking midfielder Roberto Baggio missed the decisive penalty at the Rose Bowl stadium, in California, and secured Brazil's fourth championship. At the time, the Brazilian team was facing a five-World Cup drought.
