Very successful at club level, especially with AC Milan , he was also part of the Italian squad for the 1974 World Cup in Germany .

Player career

Club career

Giuseppe Sabadini, born in Sagrado , a Friulian town in 1949 , began playing football in the youth departments of Sampdoria Genoa . By coach Fulvio Bernardini , previously master coach in Florence and Bologna , Sabadini was accepted into Samp 's professional squad for the first time in 1965 at the age of sixteen , but had to accept relegation to Serie B with his team . As a result, Giuseppe Sabadini acted in the defense of Sampdoria Genoa until 1971, was able to return directly to Serie A in 1967 and stayed there until he left the Stadio Luigi Ferraris .

In the summer of 1971 Giuseppe Sabadini changed clubs and followed the call of AC Milan . He had a very successful time under the aegis of successful coach Nereo Rocco and with players such as goalkeeper Fabio Cudicini , defender Karl-Heinz Schnellinger , midfielder Gianni Rivera and attacker Pierino Prati . However, there were no championship successes. Instead, Milan became a specialist in cup competitions during this time. Already in Sabadini's first season in Milan they won the Coppa Italia with a 2-0 final win against SSC Napoli . The following year they managed to defend this title when they beat Juventus Turin 5-2 on penalties in the final . In the same year, AC Milan - eligible to compete as the Italian cup winner in 1972 - after victories over Red Boys Differdingen from Luxembourg , Legia Warsaw from Poland , Spartak Moscow from the Soviet Union and Sparta Prague from Czechoslovakia, reached the final in the European Cup Winners' Cup and won it prevail with 1-0 against the British representative Leeds United . A year later, after successes against Dinamo Zagreb , Rapid Vienna , PAOK Thessaloniki and Borussia Mönchengladbach, they were again in the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup , but this time they had to admit defeat to the GDR representative 1. FC Magdeburg .

Giuseppe Sabadini did not reach other international finals with AC Milan, although another success was achieved in the Coppa Italia in the 1976/77 season when local rivals Inter Milan were defeated 2-0. Giuseppe Sabadini stayed with AC Milan until 1978 and made a total of 161 league games in that time, in which he scored twelve goals.

In 1978 Giuseppe Sabadini joined the US Catanzaro , which had established itself in Serie A at the time, for five years . After a series of safely achieved relegation, they only finished last in Serie A in 1982/83 and had to move into the second division. As a result, Sabadini left Catanzaro and went to Calcio Catania , just promoted to Serie A. The playing time in Catania was even worse, however , they could only get a meager twelve points and were relegated directly from bottom of the table, whereupon Giuseppe Sabadini left Sicily again . He went to Ascoli Calcio for two years . There happened in the Serie A 1984/85 relegation to the second division, and in the following Serie B season the direct promotion was achieved with a secure first rank. No longer an absolute regular player, Giuseppe Sabadini ended his active career in the summer of 1986 at the age of 37.

National team

In 1973 and 1974, Giuseppe Sabadini made four appearances in the Italian national football team . National coach Ferruccio Valcareggi called him into the Italian squad for the 1974 World Cup in Germany , but was overshadowed by other great defenders such as Inters Giacinto Facchetti and Tarcisio Burgnich , Juves Luciano Spinosi or Lazios Giuseppe Wilson , and missed one Commitment. The Italian team, however, experienced a disappointing World Cup finals. In group 4 of the group stage, they won only one victory against underdog Haiti , but lost to Poland and played a draw against Argentina , which ultimately resulted in the reigning vice world champion being out of third place in the preliminary round.

Coaching career

After the end of his active career as a football player, Giuseppe Sabadini became a coach. From 1988 to 1989 he worked as an assistant to Tarcisio Burgnich at US Catanzaro before he moved to the coaching bench himself for the following season and began to act as the person in charge on the sidelines at AC Venice , but was soon dismissed. His next stop was the US Alessandria . With the traditional Piedmontese club, Sabadini was promoted to the third division in 1990/91 and in the following year, with twelfth place, he was definitely able to stay in the class.

In the following years, Giuseppe Sabadini did not get beyond the third division as a coach, during this time he was responsible for FC Messina and again for Catanzaro. His last coaching position to date was from 2004 to 2005 at AS Taranto , where relegation to fifth division could only just be avoided.
