The greatest club side in history? The AC Milan side of 1988 - 1994 is considered one of them. A side built by Silvio Berlusconi with Italian legends like Anchelotti, Baresi and Maldini had a core from the Netherlands. Ruud Gullit, Marco Van Basten and Frank Rijkaard would give this team its spark.
This is the story of their conception, rise, and tragic separation.
Told by Nick Miller.

Marco Van Basten is the greatest striker we never talk about.
Yes they did
Injury stopped him at 29. Imagine if he could play at least 5 years more.
Rakib Hassan his final game was at 28 a few months after he won his third Balon d'Or. That was tied for the record at the time. He could have easily smashed that record and got up to five if he'd played another 5-7 years. Most guys are just entering their absolute prime in their late 20's. He should be talked about with the all time greats in my opinion.
No, we talk about Romario a bit less in my opinion.
@@SonnyK248 I feel its because he played in an earlier era where most of the people that comment on UA-cam weren't born yet. If he did this in this era, people will know how good he was
I read van Basten's book a few months ago. He stated that his injury got so bad after many surgeries that he wasn't able to walk to the toilet in the middle of the night, two years after winning the golden ball, having to crawl while being in tears because of the unbearable pain.
Unbelievable how one of the fittest people ever, is fortunate being able to walk again.
He said something along the lines that he regrets playing football with all them injuries that it properly scarred him for life
Damn, that happened to batistuta too!
@@drewdowns7128 wait, what? where can I get the info on Batistuta?
@@DonVinny Batistuta said his injury is so painful he asked doctor to cut off his leg
And van Basten also said he felt like murdered because he had to leave his passion because of injury -> football.
Ibrahim Sangare scored his first goal for PSV yesterday. Seb, Joe and Alex must have been going wild in celebrations over that.
🥳
Too bad it didn't help PSV much 😏😏
lmaooo
No one:
The majestic, incredible, inspiring, unbelievable, phenomenal, mythical, astounding, breathtaking, astonishing, extraordinary Joe Devine: *”Rude Hillit”*
Cool accent, warm pronunciation.
Along with "Rhaegard", who shook the football world inside the barrier.
Tifo needs to practice Dutch pronunciation a bit. Still a nice video
@@djdewaal289 Agreed, and he also needs to practice his Italian pronunciation!
Lol
Van Basten retiring at 28 breaks my heart and brings a tear to my eye
Fabio Capello cried on that day
Me too
🧢
He genuinely couldve been the greatest of all time but its still a blessing to see where he left off
He could of mabye won 5 ballon d’or’s and 5 champions leagues tbh he should of won the euro’s twice since denmark shouldn’t of qualified and the netherlands would of most likely beat germany
The problem with these 3 Dutch players is that AC Milan under Silvio Berlusconi didn’t buy Tifo’s recommendation of Ibrahim Sangaré
Why is that a problem?
I’m Italian and a Milan supporter, I was a teenager when the trio came to Milan. I’ve wartched all games included the demolition of Real Madrid, that was the best team I’ve ever seen play. What a good trip to memory lane!
👍But I enjoyed the 1994 Final against Barcelona. Missing their two starters at CB, one game's best LB having to play CB, the RB playing LB and still shut down Johan Cruyff's stars.
The best AC Milan ever. 👏
Dad always went on and on about this Milan team. In China, the trio are the 'Three Musketeers'
In contrast, Inter had the ''Three Carriages'' from Germany
@@reintaler6355 Was that a compliment or an insult?
@@BurnsTennis Idk how it could be interpreted as an insult; I apologize if I got the wrong translation for "马车"
@@reintaler6355 That's alright. I really wasn't sure. I never heard the term "Three Carriages". It doesn't sound as appealing as Three Musketeers.
‘The golden trio’
“Now, Tifo's pick to be the next legend on par with the Dutchmen is IBRAHIM SANGARE.”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dead meme
😂
He is a player with certain quality. You just need a technically good player next to him who he can gift the ball when retrieved. I say that as a Ajax fan. He would fit in defensively tight teams.
@Paradox Less that's why he went to Holland, to follow in their footsteps
Today I learned the legend's name I won't ever forget. Hillit!
Rigaard
😅🤣 ridiculous
Gool-it would do just fine. I do not understand where he's getting the Hill pronunciation from -.-
@@johajoha460 It's like with van Gogh. People know that you don't pronounce it like it's English, so they make all sorts of crazy guesses at how it should sound.
Rude Hillit
That's Milan team was something. S.Rossi, Tassoti/Panuchi, Costacucta, Baresi, P.Maldini Donadoni/Savicevic Rijkaard, Albertini, Evani, Gullit, van Basten
Perhaps the best, slickest counter-attack I've ever seen was put together by that Milan side against PSG in the first leg of the Champions' League semi-final in 1995. PSG knew that they had to win the first leg in Paris, so they threw everything including the kitchen sink at Milan. Excellent build-up play, using the width of the pitch, lots of overlaps from full-backs. The Milan 4-4-1-1 soaked up the pressure. Ginola went close with a 30-yard screamer in the second half. That tells you just how good the Milan defending was - the closest that PSG came to scoring was a 30-yard screamer. George Weah was thwarted by a perfectly timed last-ditch tackle from Baresi with 20 minutes remaining.
With the score still at 0-0, PSG were awarded a corner kick in the 89th minute. Maybe their last chance to score.
Albertini headed clear at the near post, and from there the sequence of passes was Desailly-Savicevic-Massaro-Savicevic-Boban.
5 passes, box-to-box in 12 seconds. 1-0.
A beautiful little through-ball from Savicevic to find Boban at the end of the move.
After 89 minutes of soaking up pressure away from home, it was the ultimate in Italian counter-attack 1-0 perfection. To defend that flawlessly for 89 minutes, and then in the final minute of the game to put a counter-attack that slick together, and just break PSG's hearts. Some journalists criticized that Milan performance for tactical negativity, but I thought that it was an incredible performance. As I said, it was the ultimate in Italian 1-0 tactical perfection.
In terms of historical greatness, Savicevic deserves a lot more credit. His ability to play a killer 30-metre through-ball pass was almost unparalleled, and between 1993 and 1995, he was the best player on the planet. His goal against Barca in 1994 was easily better than Zidane's goal against Bayer Leverkusen in 2002.
Not gullit, its hillit 😂😂😂
@@padraigmcgrath3876 beautiful summarization, i remember that game... wonderful stuff
Don't forget Ancelotti and Galli!
@@padraigmcgrath3876 👍That was my dream team 🤩
When talking about that back to back CL win on 89 & 90 ppl always talk about the invincible back four (Tasotti, Baresi, Costacurta, Maldini)
They forget *before* they face that back four, the Ancelotti & Rijkaard duo making every midfielder in the world cry lol (offensively & defensively)
and then both of them ( Ancelotti & Rijkaard ) won a CL as manager also, amazing..
Serie A of 90's and early 2000s has a special place in my Heart. Brilliant video.
best league in the world by far, they dominated so much!
Begon in 86 ended in 97.
Italien League from the 60‘s in to the early 2000s was the best football league of the world 😢
The best days of Serie A. Napoli had Diego Maradona, Zola and Careca. Inter had Matthaus, Brehme and Klinsmann and then you have Milan with the three Dutchmen. Juventus was thereabouts as well.
Napoli won in 87, Milan won in 88, Inter won in 89 and Napoli won the Scudetto in 90.
Italian football back than was on another level so it quite fitting that Milan side back than was so packed with legends. You had a academy which produced some of the best defenders ever to play the game along with some outstanding signings. Made one hell of a team
serie a back then from say 85' to 05' dominated everything, best league in the world by far
Would have smashed the Barca team and this city team no problem.
That Milan team really was crazy good. Such immense talent.
Up there with Ajax 1972, Bayern 1975 and Barcelona 2011 as one of the very best club sides
@@christianround2774 Also madrid 16/17
@@thamammubaris4000 LMAO
And Real Madrid 1956-1960.
Baresi Maldini tassotti Costacurta Donadoni gullit van basten ryikard
That European cup win in 90, before RM in 2017, was the last side to defend the title
Hi Tifo, can you kindly do a video on Sir Alex Ferguson's tactics at Aberdeen and before Man United? I'm super curious to see the evolution of his tactics and management style.
There is a documentry on UA-cam about SAF and it was filmed in 1998. It does cover a lot of the time he was at Aberdeen as well if I remember correctly.
Those arent just great players; they are the childhood heroes of millions of football fans around the world ; especially van basten 😢
Forced to retire at age 28. Capello, in his first management job, cried. Still one of the greatest out-and-out strikers ever, only perhaps overshadowed by Ronaldo Nazario the greatest one ever.
Who can forget Van Bastern's hatrick against England in Euro 88? We had a good team: Linekar, Beardsley, Barnes, Robson, Shilton etc but was completly out thought by the combination play of Gullit and Van Bastern for the goals.
True, as a Dutch kid with my first name, how could Van Basten not be my hero when I was 8 and he won the euro's?
Perhaps the title "The Flying Dutchman" can stick. These 3 Dutchman cemented their names in Italian football and Europe also, as perhaps the best combination to come out of Netherlands.
Bergkamp was known as the "non-flying Dutchman" 😂
@@Auriflamme but Bergkamp was also a great dutch combination at Inter with Wim Jonk
@@freekff6274 It was a joke about him in England because he is afraid to fly. He never played European matches away and he travelled by boat and train.
@@Auriflamme Haha yes I know :)
@@Auriflamme 🤣🤣🤣 Didn't he fly before, his plane hit some rough pockets and he developed his fear?
People always mention Maldini, Baresi, and Nesta as the key men in Milan’s success, but it really began with the three Dutchmen.
I am so happy to see Milan doing well again. But nothing I will see in my life can top this.
how old are you bro ?
@@abdulmajeedmohameed6398 Old enough to barely remember the last Scudetto and obviously the Super Cup from a few years ago
That ac milan is undoubtedly the greatest club team of all time.
Dutch has produced a lot of may be underrated legends like Denis Bergkamp etc.
from the Netherlands and compared to other dutch legends he’s fairly rated
Neither van Basten nor Bergkamp are underrated. They are well known as being among the greatests of the sport.
In what world is Bergkamp underrated? Not this one.
If you want underrated world class, try Marc Overmars, Arie Haan, Coen Moulijn, Ronald and Frank de Boer (ehhhh maybe Ronald is not a safe world class), Piet Keizer, Ruud Krol, Sonny Silooy, Faas Wilkes, etc
Koeman is underrated
"They will be forever immortal, as the key men in perhaps the greatest club team that we have ever seen". Absolute chills. This team touched the zenith of greatness which perhaps only guardiolas barca has come close to
Milan's 00s team came closest, and they shared one individual too :)
Thanks to PES through which I know these guys.
I have all these 3 legends in my squad.
MVB turned to be my favourite after I watched his videos on UA-cam ❤
MVB iconic moment helped my team and i came to this vid because no one really talks about how great he was
I have the three of them🥶
Gullit is the best ❤️❤️
Played with Van Basten on FIFA.
Very fortunate, that still can play with these players.
They're absolute beasts 🙏🙏
As an Irishman I'm so proud my national team were so unlucky against the Dutch in 88. The Dutch were magnificent and there was great honour in losing so narrowly
As a dutchman I can definitely say that Ireland was unlucky in 1988. Kieft scored a bizarre goal in that nerve wrecking game. Toughest game of the tournament for us.
@@markdeschim8253 very fair point. Great games and atmosphere against the Netherlands. We seemed to bring out the best of each other.
i was lucky grew up during their era. thanks tifo bringing back my childhood memory.
Used to love watching James Richardson on football Italia
Nice video. Especially in this modern football era where many people dont know about them. Beasts💥
Finally a video I was eagerly waiting.
Golazzo is amazing.
Still waiting for the new episodes though
I absolutely LOVE these vids.
People easily forget that AC Milan was a machine if you pull out the team from 1988-1993 it is scary list of players not just the Dutch trio.
Maldini,Donanadoni,Ancheloti,Tassoti,Baresi,Costacurta,Albertini,Mesaro and many others....
Tifo releasing this video after me watching the video of a brief history about Arrigo Saachi
Loving these
Awesome vid more content about dutch football/dutch footballers please.
It's such a shame that Van Basten's career ended so early. Look up the footage of his goodbye with Capello crying. It's hardbreaking. Van Basten looks uneffected, but inside he was dying (maybe cultural difference). After this event he said he stayed in a house in italy outside the public eye for years, and after slowly coming back in the public eye, he didn't really followed footbal untill he got his papers and promptly became the head coach of the Dutch National team, semi-succesful and then of Ajax, but he was never an oustanding succes and gave up coaching a few years ago.
Dude wrote in his biography that during his injury he couldn't even walk to the toilet at night. He would be in so much pain he would basically be crawling on the floor while crying. Such a shame that it happened to an amazing player like him.
AC Milan were astonishingly great during that time period, even going two years unbeaten in all competitions.
What a team they were!
Baresi, Maldini, Costacurta, Pappin, not to mention the three Dutchmen...wow!
Nice video. Would love to see some tactical analysis of their role in that team
i was on vacation in italy in 1988 and loved all 3 dutch players of Milan. in 1990 Rijkaard spit on Rudi Völler (my favorite german player) and i became a fan of Juventus. :-)
As someone born in 1983, watching serie a is a bit hard for me since its past my bed time lol but my dad always talked to me about these great footballers like basten, gullit, rijkaard and maradona. I dunno why but somehow my mind picks basten as my idol, milan n dutch national team as my fave club, which is weird since i dont really watch footy but i kinda like the sport.
When i finally at an age where i can sleep more late, i started watching footy, serie a especially n later premier league. It was broadcasted live, free in my country Indonesia. Unfortunately whenever i watch milan, van basten wasnt playing because of his injury, i keep waiting every week to see him on telly but he never feature. I think it was after 1992. At the time there wasnt internet so newspaper n telly is the source of news and unfortunately not much news about van basten's injury. And the sad news arrived several years later that vsn basten decided to retire from footy, i still remember the local pundit in indonesia talked about the tragedy of retiring at an early age for basten. Thus is the story of an idol that i support but never really watch him play live lol.
But then in 1996, during the euro cup, still supporting netherland, i came to knew this holland striker Dennis Bergkamp n so i finnally found Basten's Successor. Luckily this time im already at an age where i could sleep later to watcg the match, n so i became a Bergkamp's supporter.
That milan team is starting to become underrated...
That team is the greatest football team of all time...
They are hardly underrated...
@@dariolivaja978 the newer generations are really understating it
Well it has passed more then 30 years now, more time passes more people think football in the past was primitive. But, yea thag Milan team with Guardiolas Barca are the best teams in the story of footall.
@@madebyreuben3402 let them understate it. We know who were the greatest.
The greatest trio. Period.
It's a bit sad that A.C.Milan is talked more for his past than his present or future, but hopefully we'll be back soon.
Great to refresh the story of the great "olandesi" with your animated background anyway.
As the video points out, of the three legendary Dutchmen at Milan, Rikaard had the fewest injury-problems. Guillet was too technically gifted for a player with his physique. When a man as tall as that can dribble, twist and turn like that, you know that it's cumulatively going to be hell on his knees. That being said, I still think that of the three of them, the most complete all-round player was Rikaard. Rikkard was first and foremost a world-class defender, but he combined the physique of a central defender with the engine of a box-to-box midfielder and the footwork of a creative midfielder. He physically dominated the centre-circle, he was unbeatable in the air, he scored important goals, and he also had a rangy pass in his toolkit. In addition, he was the most consistent of the three of them at international level. In Euro '92, the Dutch team was not quite at its best, but Rikaard's performances were immense. Beckenbauer was a little before my time - I've seen Beckenbauer only on UA-cam. But aside from Beckenbauer, I think I can say that, in 35 years of paying close attention to football, I have seen only 2 other "complete players"
- players who could simply do it all, at both ends of the pitch. Those two players are Frank Rikaard and Andres Iniesta.
GOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOO!! Ahhh Channel 4 Italian Football memories. When I was a kid I thought it was GOAL-LAZIO!
They are all legends
What a team
If Milan got Dutch trio, then Inter also got German trio in Matthäus, Brehme and Klinsmann.
Pls make a video of Xavi , Iniesta , Busquets 3 trio ☆
Love it Love it Love it!
I really don’t know how Sacchi managed to tame so much awesomeness in the changing room this goes behind the legend
I don’t think there’s a ever better trio then this one
And very pity that van basten came to Milan with a smashed ankle
Had come fit ... I don’t even know what he would have been capable to do
Incredible
Gullit might be the best midfielder of all time. He could do everything.
Fifa players strongly agree
@@andreiginju2774 most people agree
No, not in reality
@Ab cd come out of FIFA World mate
@Ab cd no wonder you got a Chelsea profile pic
We need a Podcast episode featuring Van Basten, Gullit and Rijkaard
The great trio 💥💥💥💯💥💥💥
Harry Redknapp- Nico Kranjcar, Crouch, Defoe
Lampard- Mason Mount
Tifo Football- Ibrahim Sangaré
Nice
LEGENDS
20 years from now I wish to see a similar video on Madrid's BBC
Till this date I haven't been able to differentiate between Zidane's volley against laverkusen and van basten's volley against Soviet union. Both absolute pearler for me...
Van Bastens was more difficult due the angle and he was on the move as the ball approached. Zidane was straight on goal & he was stationary as the ball came to him. Both fabulous goals though. However Van Bastens for me.
Thanks for making this. I would love to listen to Totally Golazzo as I love Serie A, but I find one of their panelists - who frequently gets irate and interrupts people on other shows he's been on - unlistenable. More Italian football content on Tifo would be awesome.
I understand how you feel about Marcotti, but he seems a lot less insufferable on Golazo. I think this is because both Jimbo and Horncastle are relatively easy going and how the show is produced. I think you should give it a chance.
I have huge gratitude towards gullit as a Chelsea fan. He put us on the map of European football.
Wht did i get this notification 48 secs late😡🤬
4:40 Insane to think these 3 got signed a year before Maldini started his career 😭😭 these 3 plus a brand new fresh Maldini. AC Milan were true gods
The best 👉🦁👈
Can you do another video on the Germans at Internazionale (Matthäus, Brehme and Klinsmann) in the same years? The 1990 World Cup had Netherlands play Germany at the San Siro. It's a great story, even though it hurts as a Dutchman!
I would recommend a video about the shadow team. An immense luxuary problem relating to quality of players the Dutch had parked on the bench at a given moment. At some moment Roy Makaay was the leading goal scorer in Spain, but he never got selected. In some way I also consider this a big loss because generations of world class players couldn't proof what they would be capable of on a world stage.
our legends
Anyone who wants to know more about Van Basten's career/injury I would suggest looking for Balon's video on the subject
Can you guys do a Maldini special where you talk about his career and sju he one of the, if not the best player in Milans history?
That Milan team was sensational.
Please do one on Parma
Definitely 3 living legends. It ain't much, if it ain't Dutch!
Everyone always talk about Van Basten's injury. But what about Gullit's? At his peak in the late 80s he was rivalling Maradona as the best player in the world. Who knows where we'd rank him if he didn't get injured, and later on have that fallout with Capello.
In a team full of Italians. These 3 were genius.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS FINALLY MY BOYS GET MEMTIONED. THE 3 DUTCHMEN LETS GO
Not enough mention of the boy wonder IBRAHIM SANAGRE
As a Sporting fan that rijkaard bit hurts having a world class player and letting him go especially when in the coming years we had a certain luis figo coming up through the ranks now imagine thoes two together
3 of the most Magical players, Van Basten is so underrated, Gullit is probably the games most complete player!
Baresi and Maldini were just as integral. That defense was one of the best of all-time.
Defo the best. Their chemistry was immense. Costacurta was a phenomenal marker, Tassotti rarely underperformed and Baresi and Maldini are arguably the two best defenders in history.
Gullit was a great man. He gained my respect when he handed over his Gold Trophy of World's Best Player to Nelson Mandela.
Could you guys cover Gullit's time on top of a shed in Ireland?
Got me at "Glee" Immortali, lol
Who else has these 3 in PES ? Vanbasten is a beast 😅
Yeah man, totally underrated because everyone and their mothers are playing mbappe to spam long balls, while van basten is just a tank, shrugging off defenders, and his finish is very good to.. you can shot outside the box and have better chance of scoring with him
@@aichnerjoliveirdnundi1167 Yes ! U nailed it 🙂
I saw that video of the helicopters on TV once in the 90s they were looking like Rockstar.
Gazzetta Football Italia on Channel 4 was the greatest football show in TV history.
You should make a tactical profile of kaka,In my opinion one of the best midfielders of serie A
You can't tell the story of Italian football without a documentary on 'Il Grande Torino,' maybe the greatest club side of all time who also suffered the biggest tragedy. Everyone knows of Munich but most English fans are ignorant about the Superga disaster, I hope Tifo dedicate a video to Torino some day.
the team was dubbed the Immortals and to prove the point in 1988 and 1989 none of them died truly a legendary side
It's worth mentioning that the new guys mentioned (Papin, Boban, Savecivic) would go on to destroy Cruyff's Barca 4-0 in the 1994 UCL final....ohhh that Barca team had legends like Romario, Stoichkov and Koeman.
Van Basten was THE MAN...
One of the best strikers of all time!!!
Is Golazzo still producing new episodes?
Yep those 3 where special, nothing less...
pls do a tuchel tactics at chelsea
Would have loved to have seen the 88-89 Liverpool side play Milan
Hey tifo, you should do a video about Vasco da Gama, the club that changed the history of football fighting against racism in brazil. If you look into it, the history behind this club is the most incredible in the world, it really is. Search about the "Resposta Histórica"
At 3:35 looks more like Paul Scholes than Sven Goran Eriksson
Barring injury MVB was the best number 9 to ever play
I can't believe there's the need to make a video about the netherlands three best ever players
van basten is easily one of the best strikers ( and certainly he would be my no 1 choice if i had to build a legends team)
