from It’s Also History: Tales & Tidbits from Alan's Archives · host Alan Foulds

In 1927 - three years before the first FIFA World Cup - The Uruguay National Team made an unlikely visit to Malden, MA as a warm-up game for that first tournament. Uruguay had done well, beating top teams from around the world, and the club would be victorious in the 1930 World Cup. More surprisingly than their visit, was the fact that they lost to a local team. Listen how the Boston Wonderworkers took on - and beat - the world's best, not only in the match, but also in the ensuing riot.
