Houston, We Have Football

Pitch 25 in Houston claims to be where the city comes to watch football, so naturally that’s where FAN48 heads next.

From Portuguese fans hoping Cristiano Ronaldo has one final World Cup run in him, to a Sri Lankan former cricketer chasing a new life in Texas, a Spanish supporter living in Houston, and eventually… one elusive Belgian.

Along the way there’s talk of Houston’s huge international community, the growth of football in the United States, American patriotism before kick-off, cowboy boots, conspiracy theories, and why some sporting dreams never quite disappear.

Sometimes the stories aren’t inside the stadium. They’re sitting around a table with a drink, waiting for the next match to begin.
