The World Cup in Spain | Episode 1
It was the Naranjito World Cup, Diego Armando Maradona’s debut and the best celebrated goal in history; the World Cup in Spain before Iniesta was born. It was the World Cup where the best Brazil played, during the lead years of ETA, months after 23-F, from a Francoist project and where things as strange as an Arab sheikh annulled a goal from the stands. The failure of the Spanish National Team silenced a story that is connected to Barcelona 92, which catapulted Samaranch, which plunged the economy of football clubs in Spain, whose episodes of corruption and its advances as the first modern tournament rescue this podcast with more than 50 voices and all its protagonists. ‘1982, the year of the World Cup’ is a documentary series by AS Audio in collaboration with Podium Podcast and Cadena SER.
