Football is the world’s favourite game where there’s everything to play for and anything can happen. Like, a dog walking on the pitch in injury time and saving your team from relegation. A goal keeper saving two crucial goals with a broken neck. Or even a game erupting in no man’s land between the British and German soldiers during the Christmas Truce. From great events to the completely unknown and down-right ridiculous, these are the best stories from the beautiful game.
