A 71-photo gallery charts Leeds’ World Cup watching, capturing England matches in the city’s pubs and bars.
According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, the collection spans France 1998, Korea/Japan 2002, Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010.
The images show the elation and the anguish of matchdays as the city and the country believed it was coming home.
Drawn from the Yorkshire Evening Post archive, the photographs offer a vivid record of shared joy and heartbreak.
Together they chronicle how Leeds experienced four World Cups across a dozen years of hope, noise and colour.
