Plot

An epic, untold story that brings to life the inspiring saga of the World Cup and the three determined men who created it. Driven by their vision and passion, three men, overcame their doubts and fought obstacles and scandals to make the World Cup a reality.

Sinekatalog’s take

A glossy retelling of how three men created the World Cup, full of speeches and boardroom drama. The result is stiff and self-congratulatory, with little emotional spark. Hard to recommend beyond football-history completists.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
