History

Padova's golden days were the late 1950s, when the team reached the heights of third place in 1958 thanks to the wing wizardry of Kurt Hamrin. Forwards Sergio Brighenti and Aurelio Milani would star as Padova remained a force in Serie A, before relegation in 1962. The rest of the 1960s would see the club in Serie B before going into a serious decline ahead of a 1980s revival. 1958 (MCMLVIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ... Kurt Hamrin (born November 19, 1934 in Stockholm, Sweden) was a Swedish footballer. ...

The revival would see Padova return to Serie B in the early 1980s, and within a decade they would be serious promotion contenders. A play-off win over Cesena in 1994 saw the club return to Serie A after 32 years. After a dire start to 1994/95, Padova looked like fulfilling most experts' predictions of a swift return. They nonetheless found their form in the second half of the year and when they recorded a 1-0 win away to Juventus, they were six points clear of the drop zone. However, they eventually needed a play-off against Genoa to stave off relegation, which they won on penalties. Associazione Calcio Cesena is a football club based in Cesena, Emilia-Romagna. ... 1994 (MCMXCIV) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar, and was designated as the International Year of the Family and the International Year of the Sport and the Olympic Ideal. // Events January Bill Clinton January 1 : North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) goes into effect. ...

It has been suggested that Genoa cricket and football club be merged into this article or section. ...

There would be no such luck the following year, as Padova were relegated with further relegations in 1998 and 1999. Since 2001, they have resided in Serie C1. Serie C is the name of the third and fourth highest football leagues in Italy. ...
