Viva Colombia - Mark Biram - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Viva Colombia - Mark Biram - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Viva Colombia: A Social History of Colombian Football tells the story through 15 distinct episodes and 15 national team players. The book covers everything from the joie de vivre of the Colombian style - personified by Carlos Valderrama - to the travails of Colombian society illustrated by the tragic murder of Andrés Escobar in the aftermath of Colombia''s 1994 group-stage exit. The narrative examines how personal stories interlink with the wider history of the nation. Despite many complexities, Colombia is often reduced to a series of off-beam stereotypes which exoticise, eroticise or misrepresent it. This book offers a timely corrective, telling the story through the eyes of a number of its key historical protagonists. From Colombia''s first World Cup appearance in 1962 through to the present day, we discover what some of the most emblematic players to wear the shirt tell us about the Colombian nation.

Born in Wales in 1913, he became a professional boxer at age ten after moving to London. With his exceptional talent, by age 14 he was beating grown men in gruelling 15-round fights. At 15 he was thrashing national champions and at 16 was ranked by America''s The Ring magazine in the world''s top ten. In the late 1920s, audiences across Britain sat spellbound as the Wonderboy delivered boxing masterclasses against Europe''s elite fighters. Daly beat three British champions, a European champ and the reigning champions of Italy, Belgium and Germany. A magnetic figure, leading sportswriters saw him as a future world champion and possible all-time great. Tragically, however, he was recklessly overworked and forced to retire aged 17, after well over 100 pro fights. Incorporating Nipper''s previously unpublished memoirs, Born to Box is the story of his unique career, life and times.

Muhammad Ali - Dave Hannigan - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Between defeat by Trevor Berbick in December 1981 and lighting the Olympic flame in Atlanta in July 1996, Muhammad Ali spent the 15 most turbulent years of his life traversing the globe, seeking a higher purpose. Depending on the day, the retired champion could be a diplomat trying to liberate hostages in the Middle East, a salesman flogging cookies and cologne across America, or an amateur magician performing sleights of hand everywhere from prison yards to school halls to Valentino fashion shows. Sometimes hilarious, often terribly poignant, this kaleidoscopic account of the most bizarre episodes in his epic life chronicles Ali preaching Islam, causing havoc and touching lives from Beijing to Birmingham, Detroit to Damascus, Khartoum to the Khyber Pass. One minute hanging with Donald Trump, the next with Nelson Mandela, even as his own body and mind battled the onset of Parkinson''s Syndrome, here are so many previously untold stories about ''The Greatest'' treating statesmen and strangers, popes and paupers just the same.

Eibar the Brave - Euan Mctear - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Sociedad Deportiva Eibar is the Basque side from a passionate football town one-third the size of the Camp Nou. Eibar the Brave tells the amazing Cinderella story of La Liga''s smallest club, which has seen Barcelona and Real Madrid playing top-tier football at Ipurua, the 5000-capacity stadium that Eibar calls home. Promotion-party pitch invasions are not uncommon; but the night of 25 May 2014 saw a promotion with a difference, involving a wildly unorthodox club. There weren''t enough fans to cover the pitch. The celebration was 45 minutes after the final whistle. The team was wearing their away kit despite having played at home. And Eibar could still potentially be relegated! Having followed Eibar and witnessed the madness first-hand, Euan McTear documents the club''s first season in La Liga and discusses all the pieces put into place over the years to make 2014/15 a season like no other.

Henry Armstrong - John Jarrett - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Henry Armstrong - John Jarrett - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Henry Armstrong: Boxing''s Super Champ is the story of arguably the most incredible fighter in the history of boxing - told by one of the few surviving writers to have been around during Armstrong''s unique world championship reign. When Henry had his arm raised on 17 August 1938, after winning a blood-spattered 15-round decision over Lou Ambers, he became the first boxer to simultaneously hold world titles at three different weights - and somehow he managed the feat in an era of just eight weight classes, with no ''junior'' or ''super'' divisions. He had entered Madison Square Garden as the reigning world feather and welterweight champion, and left with the world lightweight belt strapped around his waist. Now in his 90s, veteran boxing journalist and author John Jarrett looks back on the life and career of this ring hero of his youth: a 5ft 51/2in buzzsaw they nicknamed ''Homicide Hank''. In the 85 years that have passed since then, nobody has matched Armstrong''s amazing triple-championship feat. It''s likely no one ever will.

Swallows and Hawke - Andre Odendaal - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Swallows and Hawke is a captivating account of 80 years of compelling cricket. From South Africa''s stunning first ever Test win by one wicket in 1907 to Syd Barnes and Herby Taylor locked in iconic combat in 1914, to Cliff Gladwin''s scrambled last-ball victory in 1949, all the standout moments are here. On the pitch, the cricketers faced extreme heat and dust, unplayable wickets and a wily and resilient opposition. Off the pitch they inspected mining compounds, were terrified by Zulu dancers and found themselves in jail or chased by rhinos. Over 15 tours the emissaries of Empire bestrode the pavilions of power with mine-owners and politicians, from Kruger to Verwoerd. They turned a blind eye to oppression and resistance and colluded with a new national mythology of white supremacy featuring ox-wagons and Blood River. The cricketing dramas take place within the perennial African struggles over land, labour and freedom as the cricketing relationship between MCC and South Africa forges the bonds of Empire.

One of the most fascinating narratives in football from the last 15 years has been the meteoric rise of the Red Bull stable of clubs. While the company known for its energy drinks was well established in extreme sports, it was not until its move into Austrian football and the birth of Red Bull Salzburg that it established a presence in the footballing world. Further investment saw Red Bull sides emerge in Germany, America and Brazil as the brand made rapid inroads into football. But Red Bull''s impact on the game runs far deeper than its marketing focus, spilling over into the game model of its clubs. Led by the everinnovative Ralf Ragnick, we saw the creation and evolution of what is now known as ''the Red Bull Way'' as coaches and players are taught to play in a very specific style. This book explores the evolution of the game model from its inception under Ragnick to what we see today. Football analyst Lee Scott lifts the lid on the Red Bull system, breaking down its concepts and tactics to reveal how they work on the pitch.
