“I was living in Brazil during the 1986 World Cup. It was an extraordinary experience in which I witnessed the sweeping up of virtually the whole population in almost hysterical excitement. Of course they expected to win: when Zico missed his penalty in the shoot-off against France the country collapsed in speechless gloom (for a day or two!)...”
Claire Milner, Client Information Manager
