Genoa Reveal 2026/27 Home Jersey Marking 1992 Anfield Win
Kit Details and Design Inspiration
Genoa unveiled their new home jersey for the 2026/27 season. The design draws inspiration from the 35th anniversary of the famous Anfield triumph over Liverpool. Kombat was responsible for the jersey’s creation, blending nostalgia with a modern aesthetic. Fans can expect bold colors and subtle references to the historic 1992 match.
Video Campaign Revives Legendary Stars
To launch the kit, the club released a special video titled ‘you’ll never run alone’, echoing the iconic Liverpool anthem. The advertising campaign reunited former players from that historic clash: Tomas Skuhravy, Mario Bortolazzi, Armando Ferroni, Vincenzo Torrente and Gennaro Ruotolo. Though captain Gianluca Signorini and defender Andrea Fortunato are no longer with us, they are honored in the clip.
The Historic 1992 Victory
The 2‑1 triumph in March 1992 made Genoa the first Italian side to beat Liverpool at Anfield. That victory secured a 4‑1 aggregate win and propelled the Grifone into the UEFA Cup semi‑finals. Carlos Aguilera scored both goals, and the video features his original commentary from Bruno Pizzul. The result remains a landmark moment in Genoa’s history.
