À propos de cet audio

A mazy dribble through the recent history of European soccer, showing how shifting styles and influence have shaped the game.

In the early 1990s, the Dutch footballing philosophy was worshiped across the continent. Then the baton passed to the Italians, who clearly boasted Europe's strongest league. But when France started winning everything at international level its national academy became the template for others, until suddenly, almost out of nowhere, Europe's most revered player and manager both hailed from Portugal. Next, Barcelona and Spain won everything during a very obvious four-year period of dominance, before tiki-taka's decline meant Bayern and Germany took control. Finally, Europe's most successful coaches found themselves competing in England, introducing a brilliant cacophony of styles to the Premier League.

Zonal Marking is a glorious travelogue through soccer's triumphant styles and characters.

What an amazing book

This book covers the changes in play of football from the 90s up until mid 2010s. It was a great over view of how the playing styles had changed along with the change in dominance of football from a European country perspective.

I highly recommend this to any fan of the game who wants to look at how team tactics evolved with the style of play and the coaches that backed those tactics.

Where I listened to this book as an Audible I can say I found the story and the narrator very engaging. I will give this one 4+ stars.

An Excellent Overview of Football Tactics

This book puts the game in the context of styles telling the history. The detail is mind blowing. Feels like the thesis of football strategy and their history. Narration is perfectly cast.

Must listen for fans of the game

It may seem like a book on the modern history of European football, but it’s really Pep’s biography.

Great book
