"The great impact that this book will have is not only to look at colonialism through soccer and the experiences of African players in various Portuguese colonial contexts, but--more significantly--to refocus discussions of colonialism and cultural practices on the local and colonized." -- Roger Kittleson, author of The Country of Football: Soccer and the Making of Modern Brazil, "[ Following the Ball and Football and Colonialism ] convincingly demonstrate that the histories of Mozambican football and of African migrants in Portugal have value and deserve to be told in their own right. ... Individually and together, these impressive books greatly deepen our knowledge and understanding of football and society in Africa and Europe.
