The Winning Team: a story about football for teenagers (and maybe a few adults) - Paperback

by Peter K. Tyson (Author)

With the collapse of the euro, the inner city riots, the suicide bombs on the trains and the national public service strikes, the Olympic Games have been transferred from Europe to a safer and more stable venue -- South Africa. Exiled in America, Kirsty, Scotland's only representative, is reunited with Arsenal and England striker Suzie in Team GB, which fortunately has not been drawn in the same group as Killer Kev's Fiji (who have already scalped New Zealand in the qualifiers). Other characters from the earlier books reappear too in this final book of the series: the D-list soap star Pandora is filming a caring advert for African orphans; Davo has been appointed a tournament referee; Adriano is commentating for Radio 5.5 and Zoe and Meaty (accompanied by Meaty Junior) are enjoying a belated honeymoon. The crucial question is: just who will be the winning team?
