The Undisputed Champions of Europe: How the Gods of Football Became European Roy

Description: The Undisputed Champions of Europe by Steven Scragg The Undisputed Champions of Europe celebrates the iconic teams, managers and players who scaled European club footballs greatest mountain. A tournament that was played out in a more rarefied air than its siblings - the European Cup Winners Cup and the UEFA Cup - the European Cup owned an unmatched sense of occasion. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The Undisputed Champions of Europe is a trilogy-ending homage to the golden era of the European Cup. A place where the gods of the game battled for the biggest prize in club football; a place where the likes of Di Stefano, Eusebio, Best, Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Dalglish, Gullit and so many others became legends, as they skated across thin ice to glory, in the colours of clubs that are now considered European royalty. An entirely different beast than the Champions League, it was a competition where you had to win your domestic league title to gain entry. With no safety net of group stages, one bad night of football was enough to send you back to square one. In contrast to todays Champions League winners - whose status as Europes best team is regularly disputed - the winners of the European Cup truly were the undisputed kings of Europe. These are the stories and glories of footballs highest achievers. Author Biography Steven Scragg is a senior writer and podcaster for These Football Times. He has featured on Guardian Sport and The Athletic, and was shortlisted for the Football Book of the Year category at The Telegraphs 2020 Sports Book Awards for his debut book, A Tournament Frozen in Time. He also authored the sequel, Where the Cool Kids Hung Out.
