There is one theme that passionately connects people around the globe: football! No other sport is as simple and can be played with so few resources. No matter where you go, someone is surely playing football, and joining in is almost always allowed. It’s no wonder that countless fan themes revolve around this topic, all of which find a place in the new illustrated book by Peter Feierabend and Bernd Pohlenz, "Football – The Ultimate Book."

With meticulous thoroughness, the two authors explore football and all its societal manifestations in this entertaining illustrated volume. They showcase legends on the ball, highlights from the best games in sports history, and the greatest football players. The book also provides an overview of the various football associations and clubs, the World Cup and continental championships, and naturally presents the most beautiful goals.

In addition to the records of the sport itself, there is also a lively interest in the lifestyle associated with it. Football is a massive business. Merchandise, ticket sales, and advertising revenue bring millions into the clubs' coffers each year. The players themselves are also a business and are examined in this book. They are brand ambassadors, sought-after models, and consistently make headlines with their hairstyles, tattoos, and fashion styles.

Finally, the two authors do not shy away from documenting the gossip side of football. Thus, the high-profile illustrated book features amusing anecdotes about missing balls.
