A flight of imagination that explores the consequences of football history going just that little bit differently...Without football, Nelson Mandela might never have become president of South Africa, and were it not for FIFA’s loopholes Africa could be enjoying the fruits of a football-induced windfall. Imagine that...So much rides on 90 minutes of sport. Was one goal really the difference between freedom and brutality for an entire team? Would children be more respectful if the substitutes’ bench had never been introduced? In Imagine that... Football young historian Michael Sells reveals the most influential decisions in the history of football and reveals how they might have changed the world.
