If Blackburn Signed Zidane

Available for over a year

If Blackburn Signed Zidane explores football’s greatest ‘what if’ moments and dives into the multiverse to put things right on the timeline. In this episode, host Specs Gonzalez is joined by David Vujanic and co-host Tego Sigel to ask 'What if Ronaldo had been fully fit in the 1998 World Cup final?'. At the time, a 21-year-old Ronaldo was tearing it up on the world stage for Brazil. But on the day of the final, disaster struck as he suffered a mysterious illness. He played in the final but looked a shadow of himself as France ran out 3-0 winners. Now, 24 years later, Specs and his guests put things right on the football timeline by giving Ronaldo back his full powers. How would football have changed? Listen along for the answers... Host: Specs Gonzalez Co-host: Tego Sigel Produced by: Conor Hewitt & Alpha Barrie. A Folding Pocket production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds.
