The Bus Revolt: Inside France's Greatest Football Mutiny (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798196998409)

The 2010 FIFA World Cup was supposed to be France's redemption story. Instead, it became one of the most humiliating collapses in football history. Inside a luxury team bus parked in Knysna, South Africa, a rebellion erupted that shocked the sporting world. Players refused to train. Coaches lost control. Teammates turned against each other. And an entire nation watched its football empire implode in real time.
THE BUS REVOLT is a gripping deep dive into the scandal that destroyed France's World Cup campaign and exposed the fractures hidden beneath one of football's most talented squads. From the controversial qualification campaign and Thierry Henry's infamous handball to the dressing-room feuds, tactical chaos, media warfare, and the explosive mutiny itself, this book uncovers how pride, ego, mistrust, and failed leadership pushed Les Bleus toward disaster.
