General Videla Part 3: God, Football, the Falklands
Foreign journalists begin to uncover Videla's cruelty at the 1978 FIFA World Cup.
The 1978 FIFA World Cup rolls into Argentina. A surreal fortnight ensues. Fans flock to revamped stadia, while just metres away prisoners cower - hidden in secret torture facilities. As foreign journalists begin to join the dots, Videla goes into statesman mode. With the tournament in the balance, the dictator and a famous friend pay Argentina鈥檚 opponents a friendly visit. It will result in one of the most contentious games in history鈥�
