Turning Points

Moments that Defined Football History

About this book

A deep dive into the archives that uncovers some of the most important stories from the annals of world football, showcasing those pivotal moments that have shaped the beautiful game.

From the author of the widely acclaimed The Social One: Why Jürgen Klopp Was a Perfect Fit for Liverpool.

Read and you will discover:

  • How the FA's decision to ban women's football in 1921 changed the course of the whole game
  • How a wrongly disallowed goal in 1973 catapulted Total Football to the world stage
  • How Marc-Viven Foe's death in 2003 led to crucial changes that saved Christian Eriksen's life 19 years later
  • How Frank Lampard's 'ghost goal' against Germany in 2010 galvanised the debate on goal-line technology
  • And much more!

From Johan Cruyff and Arrigo Sacchi to David Beckham and David Silva, the book features a parade of some of the greatest football figures of all time, alongside the moments that changed perspectives, altered opinions and ultimately determined the course of world football.
