267 History of Football
In this episode you will learn how the first game of football was originally played by the ancient Mayans and how the Captain of the losing team would be executed.
In Europe the first games of football were evolved from bored soldiers kicking around the severed heads of their dead opponents.
There are so many fascinating elements to the beautiful game but none more important than how the game of football cured racism in Brazil.
Happy World Cup 2018! Enjoy!
