Blood on the Crossbar is the story of football's most controversial tournament: Argentina's 1978 World Cup. It was a tournament that took place during a brutal military dictatorship, where thousands of citizens 'disappeared', mothers protested on the streets and a national team's success was hijacked by the military.
