WORLD FOOTBALL ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SOCCER PLAYERS MATCHES

THE CONCISE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF WORLD FOOTBALL

Edited by Glenn Moore

Great Coffee Table Book

Football is about so many things - passion, talent, tactics, money and politics to name a few - but often when the finest players are on the field, whether in an international or domestic game, the match will transcend these things and became what Péle referred to as "the beautiful game".

The Concise Encyclopedia of World Football covers the game from every angle, from its beginnings in the villages or towns of rural England during the Middle Ages to France '98 and the trials and tribulations fo the national sides as they fought it out for the greatest prize in football. There are features on the greatest players, from Ferenc Puskas, Bobby Charlton, Eric Cantona and Péle to Alan Shearer, Michael Owen, Zinedine Zidane, David Ginola, Ryan Giggs and Ronaldo; the best managers, including Helenio Herrera, Jock Stein, Kevin Keegan and Alex Ferguson, and of course, the great matches like England's famous victory over Germany in the 1966 World Cup Final.

With sections on competitions, internationals, the women's game, fan culture, tactics, equipment, the scandals and the tragedies, The Concise Encyclopedia of World Football is the essential book for anyone who follows the game.
