The World Cup has been called The Greatest Show on Earth. And if 90 minutes plus overtime and penalties is just the sort of entertainment you like, this book is guaranteed to score. Along with a supporting cast of dodgy refs, eccentric mascots, and manic managers, there are shameful fixes, outrageous cheats, and the most unpronounceable team of all. From Uruguay 1930 to Korea-Japan 2002 and beyond—here are the famous, the infamous, and the downright bizarre.
