Our guest is Richard Mills, author of The Politics of Football in Yugoslavia: Sport, Nationalism and the State. We look at the roots of football in the Balkans, its development up to World War II and the impact of the post-war dictatorship under Marshall Tito.
Richard talks us through football’s role during the disintegration of Yugoslavia, including the infamous Maksimir Riot of 1990.
