About this ebook
Sport is all about thrilling moments. It takes just a few seconds of inspiration and talent to change the course of sporting history. A kick, a pass, a burst of speed and courage in the right place at the right time — that’s what separates winners from losers. Great athletes spend their whole careers preparing for when a career highlight might happen. Nobody can predict them. But, once in a while during a match, out on the track or in the pool, all the elements line up perfectly.
In Thrilling Sporting Moments you’ll read about some of the most exciting moments in our sporting history.
