American Triumph, 1994 (an English Take)
July, 1994. At the World Cup in the US, Bulgaria performs brilliantly, reaching the semi finals. Outside Bulgaria, the English are particularly amazed, all the way up to the then Prime Minister John Major — when Jordan Letckow’s flying header in New York “kicked out” Germany. A day to remember: 10 July 1994.
In England, and across the UK, Bulgaria has never been as popular as in that summer of 1994. And less popular, perhaps, in Germany…
(PM John Major: “Letchkov showed the beauty of the game.”)
N.B. This is a comedy!
(From “World Cup, Heaven and Hell”,
