FOOTBALLS STRANGEST MATCHES

FOOTBALLS STRANGEST MATCHES

In this fascinating collection of true stories taken from over one hundred years of footballing history, Andrew Ward has gathered together the most extraordinary events ever to occur on a football pitch.

they include stories about the game that spectators couldn’t see; the game that lasted four hours; the game that lasted four days; the matches between the strikers and the police in 1926, and between the Eton College and the unemployed boys; the games of three halves; the game decided by a hypnotist; the one in which the same player scored all four goals – two for each side – and the game where both teams had the same manager. A delight for all Soccer fans, Football’s Strangest Matches is a unique look at some of the more curious moments of the beautiful game.
