2001: A Football Odyssey...Could This Season Mirror One of the Most Dramatic in European History?

2001: a football odyssey.

First up, it's Serie A. The lights, the glamour, the history. This was an era when Italian calcio ruled the roost. Where the creative gladiator went to ply his trade, fighting tooth and nail against roaring defences. Rather poetically, Roma would take home the Scudetto of 2000/01, their first since the season of '83. At the time, it was a league filled with Francisco Totti, Alvaro Recoba, Manuel Rui Costa, Roberto Baggio, Alessandro Del Piero. The trequartista list could go on, but time wouldn't allow it.
