Fußballweltmeisterschaft 1950 Brasilien.
World Cup Champiomship 1950 in Brazil (GERMAN) The 1950 Tounament is still known as the „Mystery Tournament“ The only tournament where there was no real final, the first where England took place (and was knocked out by the USA), and which ended with the biggest sensation in tournament history where Uruguay forced the hosts Brazil into their darkest football nightmare ever. The authors lead us through the phase before the championship, and supply interesting information during the event, making the „Myth of 1950“ come to life. Background info like the absence of the German team, or why Argentina refused to take part, and the organisational chaos on site, which made life hard for the European journalists. Main themes are a portrait of the Brazilian Team and Superstar Ademer, as well as the surprise winners Uruguay. As always, full of facts, figures, photos and statistics, making the German easy to follow. Hardback, size 21x30 cm. Circa 80 b/w photos, 128 pages (GERMAN).
