About this episode
The episode explores the complex history of soccer in Egypt, including its rise to prominence and the relationship between the government and supporters.
This week, Graham and Taylor spend some time trying to scratch the surface of the complicated history of soccer in Egypt: how did the sport rise to prominence, which club has dominated both the country and the continent, the occasionally hostile relationship between government and supporters, and much much more! Plus, how has the Egyptian Premier League, the country's top flight, helped shape Egypt national teams, past and present? WE HAVE A YOUTUBE CHANNEL! We're posting all our episodes here !
