In 1970’s Gigi Riva led the Sardinian side Unione Sportiva Cagliari to win their only ever Serie A title. Riva arrived at Cagliari in 1964 and galvanised a team that had spent most of the previous years in Serie B. He was known as a magnet for signing good players from ‘fashionable clubs’ to head to Sardinia to play football. Examples were Fiorentina goalkeeper Enrico Albertosi and Inter midfielder Angelo Domenghini. These players were very important in clinching the Serie A title and also in the coming years. No less than 6!Cagliari players were later called up to the Italian 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico squad where Italy lost the final to Pele and Brazil.
