World cup 1958, Brazil National team coach explains a very convoluted and intricate tactical play for a goal in their match against Russia (then Soviet Union). A very famous player - Garrincha, arguably one of the greatest players of early football/soccer - listened to his explanation and asked "That's very cool and all, Mr. Feola. But have you checked with the Russians?" (In English I think 'did the Russians agree' may sound more idiomatic) [1] https://barrichelo.com.br/teoriadosjogos/list-trechosimprime... |
