You would be forgiven for thinking that football did too. However, remarkably, as the fighting raged, football mostly found a way to continue. This is the story of how the war effort needed football, and how the future president of FIFA protected the World Cup from the Nazis. This is the eighth in a series, written by Jonathan Wilson, exploring the entire history of football. Illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
