Stefano Borgonovo (17 March 1964 – 27 June 2013) was an Italian footballer who played as a striker. ==Football career== Born in Giussano, Province of Monza and Brianza, Borgonovo began his professional career with Como Calcio, making his debut at 17 in a Serie A match against Ascoli Calcio, and reaching the semi-final of the 1985–86 Coppa Italia with the club. After a loan spell at S.S. Sambenedettese Calcio he established himself as a key player, and in 1986 moved to A.C. Milan, who immediately loaned him back to Como. After two years Borgonovo was sent on loan again, this time to ACF Fiorentina, where he had the most successful season of his career, scoring 14 league goals while playing alongside attacking partner Roberto Baggio. The two forwards would form an important friendship, and their prolific goalscoring exploits that season (together they scored 29 of Fiorentina's 44 Serie A goals that season) would earn the attacking pair the nickname "B2", as both their surnames began with the letter B; together, they helped Fiorentina to qualify for the UEFA Cup.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://fondazionestefanoborgonovo.it/borgonovo/ )〕 Borgonovo's performances earned him three caps for Italy, all in 1989 – his debut coming on 22 February 1989, in a friendly with Denmark, which ended in a 1–0 victory to the Italians.〔 He also helped the under-21 side to qualify for the upcoming European Championships during the 1985–86 season, earning three caps, and scoring a crucial goal against Sweden, although he was unable to take part in the finals, in which Italy finished runners-up to Spain, due to injury.〔 Borgonovo's prolific season with Fiorentina also earned the chance to prove himself with the defending European Cup champions Milan in 1989. He spent much of the 1989–90 campaign as backup to Marco van Basten, also due to injury,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fifa.com/classicfootball/news/newsid=2122494/ )〕 only making 13 appearances, and scoring 2 goals,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/27-06-2013/borgonovo-stefano-morto-sla-49-anni-malato-milan-fiorentina-20668702076.shtml )〕 although he helped Milan to capture the European Supercup, the Intercontinental Cup, and most notably, the European Cup that season, first winning a penalty for Van Basten, and then scoring a crucial goal himself in the semi-finals, against Bayern Münich; he scored 2 goals in total in the competition.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fifa.com/classicfootball/news/newsid=2122494/ )〕 Despite earning a prestigious European Cup winners' medal, he left the club at the end of the season, keen to play regular first-team football; although Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi was keen to keep his services, he returned to Fiorentina, where he spent two years without managing to recapture his previous form.〔 Spells at Pescara Calcio, Udinese and Brescia Calcio followed, before Borgonovo retired in 1996. He later served as a youth coach back at Como, but retired in 2005 due to poor health.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stefano Borgonovo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
