Divided Cities 2

Football's greatest rivalries are about far more than what happens on the pitch. They are expressions of identity, history, geography and belonging.

Blending travel writing, football culture and social history, this is a fascinating study of the rivalries that matter most to those who live them. Passionate, insightful and immersive, Divided Cities 2 offers an authentic look at football's enduring power to unite and divide in equal measure.
