 The History of Football DVD presented by Alan Green

This History of Football DVD captures more than 100 years of drama
passion , excitement and despair that only The Beautiful Game can
evoke.

Coming into the 20th century Preston North End were the finest team
in the country. Now as we move into the New Millenium it is another
team from the north west of England , Manchester United , who , along
with London club Arsenal are dominating the game.


In the intervening 100 years the game of Association Football has pro-
duced a galaxy of stars , thrilling games and controversy from the
early years of the White Horse final through to the emergence of
Michael Owen , whose goal against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup
shook the world , and David Beckham , whose move to Real Madrid
in 2003 was easily the biggest news of the decade so far.


Along the way we pay tribute to Herbert Chapman`s sensational
Huddersfield and Arsenal sides of the 30s; explore the era of Finney
and Matthews; relive England`s World Cup victory of 1966; rejoice
in the skills of the fantastic Brazil side of 1970; chart the rise of
Liverpool as the dominant force in European football in the 70s and
80s; and examine the sweeping changes in the game in the 90s
culminating in an English team , Manchester United , once again

being crowned Champions of Europe in 1999 , completing an
incredible Premier League , FA Cup and European Cup treble.

The New Millenium saw France add the 2000 European Championship
trophy to their 1998 World Cup and Liverpool match Manchester
United`s treble with one of their own in 2001. On the domestic front
Arsenal continued to challenge Manchester United in the 2003 race
to the Premiership title.


A History of Football is a remarkable story of our national game , featuring
rare archive footage , exclusive interviews , incredible matches and
all the most memorable moments. Presented by Radio 5 Live`s Alan
Green , it is an essential addition to the DVD collection of any football

fan and a great birthday or christmas gift.
