S2 Episode 5: Simon Hart, Cameroon 1-0 Argentina, 1990
Rob MacDonald
Rob and Adam are joined by Simon Hart, author of the fabulous 'World in Motion: The Inside Story of Italia 90' and 'Against All Odds' contributor, to talk about Cameroon's famous victory over Diego Maradona's World Cup-holding Argentina in Milan in 1990 - possibly the most extraordinary result in World Cup history and certainly one of the most extraordinary opening matches.We chat to Simon about the importance of that tournament but also the effects of that Cameroon team's run on football in their home country, which, it probably won't surprise you to learn, haven't been 100% positive.
