During the 1991–92 English football season, U.S. Foggia competed in Serie A.

Season summary[edit]

The team managed by Zeman arrives in Serie A in the 1991–92 championship. Foggia plays a decent season surprising everyone with a superb offensive system. The Italian media and even European media talk about the team calling Zemanlandia or Miraculous Foggia. The almighty trio of forwards: Signori-Baiano-Rambaudi gave amazing games through the year. Foggia finished 9th in Serie A. Their attacking 4–3–3 formation saw the club score 58 goals, more than any other club but champions A.C. Milan, and challenge for a place in the UEFA Cup. However, their leaky defense – the team also conceded 58 goals, exceeded only by bottom club Ascoli – scuppered their European charge.
