The Sega Master System version of World Cup Italia '90 is a football game developed and published by Sega in 1990.

While often paired with the Sega Mega Drive game World Cup Soccer, the Master System version is a different game, with more teams, a less zoomed-in perspective, and completely different graphics and audio. It also has even less to do with the event it is named after than the Mega Drive game - it just models itself after international football as it stood in 1989/1990.

In Brazil the game was retitled Super Futebol II, claiming to be a "sequel" to an older Master System title, World Soccer.

Gameplay

World Cup Italia '90 is a top-down football game which adheres to most of the sport's rules. There are no free kicks.

Teams

Despite its name, the Master System game was released after the tournament, and includes an extra six teams over its Mega Drive counterpart.
