  This anthology brings together some of the best writing about soccer over the sport's long and illustrious history. Regular writers on the game such as Eamon Dunphy, Pete Davies and Simon Barnes are joined by the more unexpected contributor such as Roy Hattersley, Harold Pinter and Barry Norman, on subjects as far-ranging as the dribbling skills of Pele, Liverpool followers in Rome, the world's greatest save, Brian Clough, and the declaration of war between El Salvador and Honduras following their World Cup tie in 1970.
