http://yyfp.rocks/episodes/decoding-world-cup-1930-dean-lockyer/

Eighty-seven years ago today Uruguay defeated Argentina in the first ever World Cup Final that took place in Montevideo, 1930. The World Cup 1930 project was invited onto the Yesteryear Footy Pod @yyfpod for a three-hour conversation to discuss the event.

Many thanks to Sebastian for the invitation and facilitating this process. Go and check out the Yesteryear Footy Podcast site for other discussions that include topics such as Champions League Finals and Polish Football etc.
