FOOTBALL: THE GAME THAT CHANGED THE WORLD

Introduction

Is it true that the first football players in Russia entertained the public between bicycle races?
Why did bachelors and married men have to play against each other? Is it possible to cheat, to deceive the referee and win the world championship? What teams did the Little Mozart, Black Spider and Black Panther play for? Most people never ask such questions, while the authors of this book have not only asked them, but also found the answers.
This is an exciting history of football from the very beginning till present day, for both children and adults, either long-standing fans or those trying to understand what inspires their friends and family.
