" SSC.Napoli in the final of the 1989 UEFA Cup "
da Massimo LA PIETRA 

Dear SSC Napoli supporter,
My name is Wouter Woortman and I am a 26 year old mechanical engineer from the Netherlands. As a fan of European football I collect statistics of al major European club competitions, for my personal archive.

My special interest go out to the semi-finals and finals of the Champions Cup, Cup-Winners Cup, UEFA Cup and European Super Cup. I try to find the following items :
1. Venue (city and name of stadium);
2. Players who scored the goals (minute and name);
3. Number of spectators;
4. Referee (name and nationality);
5. Yellow and red cards (of both teams);
6. Line-ups (of both teams);
7. Substitutions (of both teams).

SSC Napoli has only been able to reach the final of the UEFA Cup in 1989.
That final was won by SSC Napoli in a two match final. Before Napoli reached the final they had to beat FC Bayern München. In the two match semi-final they won the first match with 2-0 and the second match was a draw 2-2. In the final they were better then VfB Stuttgart (2-1 and 3-3).

1988-1989 UEFA Cup :
Semi-final
  -  -'89 SSC Napoli - FC Bayern München = 2-0
  -  -'89 FC Bayern München - SSC Napoli = 2-2
Final
03-05-'89 SSC Napoli - VfB Stuttgart = 2-1
17-05-'89 VfB Stuttgart - SSC Napoli = 3-3

I send You this e-mail, because from the above standing games that SSC Napoli played there are some items missing in my personal archive. I am looking for the following items from the :
1. Semi-finals :
   - Date of the games;
   - Players who scored the goals (minute and name);
   - Number of spectators;
   - Referee (name and nationality);
   - Yellow and red cards, that were handed out in these games to both sides;
   - Line-ups (of both teams);
   - Substitutions of both teams (name of players and minute of substitution);
2. Finals :
   - Yellow and red cards, that were handed out in these games to both sides;
   - Substitutions of both teams (name of players and minute of substitution);

I hoop that You can help find some of these item. Looking forward to hear from You.

Best regards,
Wouter Woortman (from the Netherlands)
