When Neil heard someone say that selective cattle breeding in the 18th Century affected Argentinian football, he just knew this was an episode waiting to happen. The fact that the person who uttered those words was one of the best sports journalists around made it even more important to pursue. Enter Jonathan Wilson, Guardian journalist, author and football expert. He explains to the lads how selective cattle breeding and a bull named Tarquin created Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi!
