Harry Harris, former Sports Writer of the Year, brings his unique perspective and insight to Germany 2006 in his regular weekly World Cup column for ntlworld.
The 2006 World Cup was simply the biggest sporting event of the year, culminating in a spectacular final. The nation mourned as England failed to break 40 years of hurt to lift the gleaming trophy. But we had deserved winners and football fans across the nation were glued to the action of this most wonderful sporting spectacular.
In his World Cup Diary, renowned journalist and author Harry Harris, lead football writer on the Daily Express, brings the entire tournament to life, with analysis, in-depth reportage and his usual quick wit.
The book provides fans with a day-by-day, match-by-match guide to the entire tournament, including the qualifying stages. It combines Harry's insightful daily columns with full statistics from each game and over 250 photographs from the best photographers on the planet from the tournament.
The main focus of the book will be on England’s performance at the Finals, the press and fan reaction to what went on and the media hullabaloo which inevitably followed Rooney’s red card, Owen's injury and Beckham's resignation – not to mention those WAGs!
Harry also examines the performances of major Premiership stars such as Thierry Henry, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Hernan Crespo and the villain of the tournament Cristiano Ronaldo, not to mention other world stars like Ronaldinho, Shevchenko & Kaka.
Do not miss the opportunity to own this complete record of the World's greatest tournament.
