Episode Notes
The final part of our book showcase this summer features the unheralded tale of the US team's journey to Italia '90, so important as it was in laying the foundations for what was to come. Adam Elder is a writer for the New York Time and the New Yorker amongst many other publications and his story of an unlikely bunch of players resurrecting soccer in a country who wanted to forget pretty much anything associated with the 1970s is a fascinating read.
The book is now available on paperback https://amzn.eu/d/0gXiYFKz
Normal Nessun Dorma returns soon with our big series on 1986/87!
