Paolo Barison (Italian pronunciation: [ˈpaːolo bariˈzon; -ɔn], Venetian: [baɾiˈzoŋ]; 23 June 1936 in – 17 April 1979) was an Italian association footballer who played as a striker.
During his club career, Barison played for S.S.C. Venezia, Genoa C.F.C., A.C. Milan, U.C. Sampdoria, A.S. Roma, and S.S.C. Napoli. He made his Serie A debut with Genoa on 8 September 1957, in a 4–0 away defeat against Napoli.[1] He was a key figure in Milan winning the 1962–63 European Cup, scoring six goals during their cup run, however he was dropped for the final in favour of Gino Pivatelli.[2]
At international level, Barison earned 9 caps and scored 6 goals for the Italy national football team between 1958 and 1966.[3] He made his international debut on 28 February 1959, in a 1–1 friendly home draw against Spain, and he later took part at the 1966 FIFA World Cup in England.[1] In the latter tournament, he assisted Sandro Mazzola's opening goal and then scored a late goal himself in the team's opening 2–0 win over Chile.[4] Italy were eliminated in the first round following an unexpected 1–0 loss to North Korea in their final group match, in which he also appeared.[5]
