In Brazil nothing is more important than football.
If England is the birthplace of football then Brazil – the five-time World Cup winners and home of Pelé, Romário, Ronaldo, Neymar and the rest – is the heart and soul of the game.
Jogo Bonito – meaning ‘the beautiful game’ – takes you on a journey through the Wild West of Brazilian football. On the way we meet an eclectic cast of characters, such as Mario Zagallo, the four-time World Cup winner; the long-lost son of Garrincha; Brazil’s best-loved bad boy player turned politician, Romário; and many more.
A history, a travelogue and a gonzo-style report into Brazil which looks at all aspects of the game and encounters an eclectic mix of characters from World Cup winners to hooligans with commentators and politicians thrown into the mix. Published in 2014.
