22 June, 1969 🇵🇹

After student protests rocked Portugal, Académica de Coimbra took to the field in the Taça de Portugal final against Benfica.

They wore black students' robes in solidarity with protestors and in mourning for those suppressed by the fascist regime.

5 years later, inspired by the protests, the Carnation Revolution would topple the regime. Académica de Coimbra played a central role in the end of fascism in Portugal.

In 1984, Rose Reilly lifted the Mudialito, the spiritual predecessor to the Women's World Cup, with Italy.

Born and raised in Stewarton, Ayrshire, she remains the only Scottish person to have won the World Cup.

Her story is one of representation and resilience.

La musique était au cœur de la cérémonie d'ouverture de @Paris2024. En effet, sport et musique ne font parfois qu'un, comme cette partition illustrée d'Erik Satie intitulée Sports et divertissements (ill. Ch. Martin, 1914) #JO2024 #OlympiadeCulturelle

@damienjoyce Hi, that was a bit of a one-off, yes, based on my own interest in 70/80s bands, the designers and historical avant-garde references. But it’s not something I’m really working on.
