	Description:		In this episode of World Football, we bring together two sports not usually associated with each other – football and snooker. That’s because four-time world snooker champion Mark Selby’s career has been strongly linked to his hometown football club Leicester City. He became world champion for the second time on the night of Leicester’s iconic Premier League title win in 2016 As he prepares to try to add another world title to his collection at the World Championship in Sheffield, England he’s been telling John Bennett about his footballing passion.
