The Guardian FootballSpain’s coaching culture leads the way, thanks to visionary Johan Cruyff | Philipp Lahm
Great brought an ideology to Barcelona that Guardiola and Emery refined, defining the playing style of the national team Two countries are generating powerful, cross-border momentum in football. Spain represent the leading footballing culture, radiating their influence across the globe. Argentina possess a distinct identity that shapes the South American continent. Consequently, the World Cup is witnessing the perfect final. The architect of Spain’s vision is Johan Cruyff. He brought the 4-3-3 formation and a specific ideology to Barcelona. A cadre of tactical purists, such as Pep Guardiola and Unai Emery, refined his approach into a philosophy that has defined the playing style of the entire league, all youth squads and the national team for nearly two decades. Its principles include ball-oriented defending, clearly defined positions and roles, a high level of organisation, and technical, combination-based football. Eleven players operate as a unit, moving like a swarm. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballHave the top four teams ever made up the World Cup semi-finalists before? | The Knowledge
Plus: back-to-back heavy wins and defeats, and an unsurprising challenger to a Lionel Messi record Mail us with your all of your questions and answers “The top four teams in the Fifa rankings are also the four semi-finalists at the World Cup,” writes Henry Conroy. “Has this happened before?” The men’s rankings have updated after every match of the World Cup, and Fifa surely missed a trick by not asking the great Martin Tyler to shout “And they’re live!” It means the order has changed during the tournament but the makeup of the top four was the same going into the semi-finals as it was at the start of the competition. Brazil (3) v Germany (2) Netherlands (15) v Argentina (5) Germany (11) v South Korea (40) Brazil (2) v Turkey (22) Germany (19) v Italy (13) Portugal (7) v France (8) Spain (6) v Sweden (3) Australia (10) v England (4) United States (2) v Germany (1) Japan (4) v England (6) Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballSpain, France, Argentina and England beware: Demons haunt the World Cup semi-finals
The World Cup spotlight causes single games to live longer in the memory than any other. The remaining teams at this tournament face defining moments World Cup games mean more. England have only ever played 80 games in the finals, which is to say, not much more than two Premier League seasons in the 76 years since they first entered. Those games draw huge audiences: more than 17 million in the UK watched Saturday’s win over Norway, even though it was after midnight by the time it finished. In most countries, World Cup matches are more discussed, more analysed, than any other in sport, perhaps any other cultural phenomenon. They are rare moments that bring vast numbers of people together, hoping, agonising, celebrating, commiserating. They become part of the culture. Moments from games become touchstones. Allusions can be made to games from six decades ago in the reasonable expectation of being understood. That has a strange, distorting effect. Far too much is read into individual games, in a way it just wouldn’t be in a league game. Senne Lammens’s error that cost Belgium the quarter-final against Spain was watched by far more people than watch the average Manchester United game. There is not another match in three or four days that would mean Lammens’s mistake would be readily forgotten. It will always be part of his story, even if it subsequently becomes about redemption with a brilliant display in some future World Cup. Continue reading...
