OTC Special: How sportswashing took over football
Description
Football could be considered the most popular cultural pursuit that has ever existed. So should we be surprised that – perhaps more than any other sport – it is routinely used to gain political and cultural soft power?
Today, Miguel Delaney tells Dotun and Andy all about his new book, States of Play, which gets to the bottom of sportswashing and assesses its true impact on the game we love. Miguel also speaks candidly about dealing with abuse and why he felt so compelled to cover this side of football.
