Online Review
Andres Cantor is one of the sporting world's true characters: he is the stentorian voice of soccer on the Univision network. The book's title comes from the multisyllabic wail Cantor lets out when a goal is scored and he's at the microphone. His book's contents are far less loud, but are every bit as colorful and interesting: a detailed history of World Cup soccer and the jingoism that often attends it all run through Cantor's outsized personality. Cantor knows his stuff and relays it entertainingly with keen analyses of the evolution of on-the-field play and punchy interviews with such high-kickers as Brazil's Pele, England's Bobby Charlton, Holland's Johann Cruyff, and Argentina's Diego Maradona.
