Ramon Usall: Kicking Off Around the World, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Think you know everything about soccer? Which soccer match triggered a war? How did 'the beautiful game' push back against the tyranny of dictatorship, and usher another into power? Kicking Off Around the World includes 55 incredible stories in which soccer clubs have been a mirror to-and a maker of-world history and politics. Full of anecdotes, surprising facts and illustrations, Ramon Usall mixes the grassroots with the greatest of all time; the unknown and the unforgettable. He looks at the women's game, soccer during the war in Ukraine, and stories of clubs from Britain to the US, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, from soccer under the Nazis to the communists and everyone in between." -- publisher.
