Sinopse
The true story:
The Jules Rimet Trophy (“World Cup”), the most famous sporting trophy in the world, was loaned by Football Association of England (FA) to a Stamp Exhibition in Westminster Central Hall as a promotion for the upcoming 1966 World Cup games. From this location, a block from Scotland Yard, thieves stole the World Cup on Sunday March 20, 1966. England was mortified and the whole world enraged by the theft. After a week of intensive investigation by Scotland Yard, the trophy was still missing, and a botched ransom attempt netted nothing. Sunday, March 27, the World Cup was found under a garden hedge in Southeast London by a dog named Pickles.
My story:
Explains how a group of soccer-loving kids found out about the proposed theft, and with the help of their dogs, outsmarted the robbers by stealing back the Cup through a spine-tingling adventure to save the day for England. Then there are a series of vignettes where the kids get to see some of the famous World Cup games and meet some of the world’s biggest soccer stars, culminating in England winning the world championship of soccer. Queen Elizabeth presented the World Cup to the team and gave Pickles a medal for bravery.
