1984–85 Hellas Verona season

In the 1984–85 season, manager Osvaldo Bagnoli guided Hellas Verona F.C. to its only Serie A championship, shocking the Italian football public.

Season
Hellas Verona added to its lineup Briegel (fullback), Preben Elkjær (centre forward), Fanna (winger), Di Gennaro (midfielder) and Galderisi (striker). Bagnoli's side had a good first half of league, losing only a game: it was on Avellino's pitch, where - in the last few minutes - Hellas gave up a 2–1 knockout.

In retour matches, the team achieved its best results in key games. This path - unexpected by most part of its supporters - came to climax on 12 May 1985, the Sunday on which, by drawing at Atalanta's home, Verona clinched its first domestic title.
