On this day in 1993, the Argentina national team won the Artemio Franchi trophy.
The Argentina national team defeated Denmark 1-1, 5-4 on penalty kicks. Claudio Caniggia scored the only goal for Argentina while Nestor Craviotto scored an own goal for Denmark and the match would go to penalties.
Diego Maradona, Gabriel Batistuta, Diego Simeone, Alejandro Mancuso, Claudio Caniggia and Julio Saldaña took the penalty kicks for Argentina. Caniggia would miss his with the rest scoring and Argentina would lift the Cup.
This was the starting eleven for the match:
Goycochea, Craviotto, Borelli, Vázquez, Altamirano; Simeone, Mancuso, Maradona, Rodríguez; Batistuta and Caniggia
Eventually rebranded as the Confederations Cup and now the Finalissima, this was the final trophy won by Argentina until the 2021 Copa America.
