Bati VS Baggio: Who is the real king of Serie A in the 1990s? Exclusive to fans born in the 1970s

Violent God of War vs. The Melancholy Prince: Gabriel Batistuta and Robert Baggio, two iconic superstars of Serie A in the 1990s, represent the two extremes of football. Bati swept the penalty area under the name of "God of War". His goal was like a heavy artillery of thunder, and his strength was so strong that he could reach the world. In his nine years in Fiorentina, he used 352 career goals (56 goals for the national team and 296 goals for the club) to interpret the violent aesthetics of the center, and even scored a hat trick for two World Cups. Baggio conquered the world with the elegance of the "Mourish Prince". His dribbling was as poetic as a poem. In the 1994 World Cup, he almost carried Italy to the finals with his own strength. The Golden Globe Award and the honor of the World Footballer proved his status as the "Nine and Half" sect.

Game between data and honors: Bati's hardcore data is better: 10 goals in the World Cup and 13 goals in the Copa America, but the team honors only once Serie A championship; although Baggio scored fewer goals (232 goals in his career), he has 2 Serie A championships, 1 League Cup championship, and the tragic legend of the World Cup runner-up.

Controversy lasts forever: Bati's loyalty and arduousness make him the totem of Florence, while Bagio's spirituality and tragic color make him surpass the football itself. In terms of dominance, Bati is the overlord of the penalty area; in terms of artistry, Bagio is unmatched. There is no answer to this contest, only eternal opposition and resonance.
