During the 1920s, Central Europe was developing a style of football based on passing and artistry - decades ahead of its time. But as Hitler and the Nazi’s invaded this region, the football idealism left. This is the story of how, through devastation, football fled the Danubian region, but reemerged in what we now know as the greatest footballing nations. This is the sixth in a series, written by Jonathan Wilson, exploring the entire history of football. Illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
