I've done a retelling of the story of Joe Gaetjens, the Haitian who scored the only goal for the US when they defeated England 1-0 in the 1950 World Cup in Brazil. You can hear it at Monocle.com, on their programme The Globalist (link to it here) about 36 minutes in.I wrote about the game, and some of the misconceptions around it, four years ago, you can find that essay right here at IT. I did write an update of sorts, but thus far no one is interested. Maybe if the US advance. I should point out the US and England drew 1-1 in that 2010 match, so the English still haven't managed to beat us in a World Cup match. Ever.
