watching a pre-world cup series called

FOOTBALL’S GREATEST MOMENTS

episode one is about world cup and dictators (brazil, argentina)

episode two is about england in 1990

episode three is about france 98: beckam, the real ronaldo, and zidane

episode four is “bring me the head of diego maradona”

it’s obviously a british production, but amazon in the u.s.a. has it listed as HISTORY OF SOCCER (false premise, boring title).

in any case, great little show. frequent guests so far include pelé, gary lineker, oscar ardiles, and a smattering of sports journalists. other guests are players and fans and specialists in their respective national teams. e.g., maradona’s agent, mario kempes, tostao and other mexico ’70 winners, survivors of torture, english players from their 1990 squad (who go back to present day italy to reminisce) etc.

really nice series so far! quite moving too at times. perfect football hiatus show since no real games today (prolly europa qualifier somewhere but i wouldn’t know)
