Talking about Football
Raymond Kopa on his time as a miner:
My father and brother worked in the mines and when I was 14 I joined them. I tried to find a job above ground, because at that age I was already showing promise as a footballer. But no one helped me out and from the age of 14 to 17 I drilled the mines at a depth of 612 meters.
