Chapter One: USA vs. England in the 1950 World Cup
Manage episode 408340022 series 3018560
Founding Futbol is a year-long exploration of the critical moments that have led to the game's emerging popularity in America.
Soccer didn’t start in America on June 29th, 1950. But the 1950 US Men’s National team’s impossible victory over England in the World Cup was an anchor moment – our first moment – in the decades long journey that soccer has taken back to prominence in America. In Chapter One of Founding Futbol, we explore why that game had meaning, what made it special and what key information soccer fans should know about that team and match.
Author Geoffrey Douglas is our guest. He wrote The Game of Their Lives, the book about this 1950 game that later became a movie.
