9 | Joe Gaetjens (1950)

Brian tries to contain his glee as he unfolds the story of the greatest upset in World Cup history: the United States' 1-0 win over a massively favored England in 1950. We'll talk about goalkeepers who drive hearses, midfielders who wear boxing gloves on the pitch, and the Haitian accounting student who scored perhaps the most shocking goal of all time.
