[Llandaff Blue]

a great example of the modern game

Great example from Bournemouth on drawing the press and then beating it. Superb understanding of how their positioning and ball movement manipulate the opposition, combined with the ability and composure to play off of 1 or 2 touches under pressure ���� pic.twitter.com/h1XlYgPQ9s

Apparently, in the 1870s, Scotland bamboozled the English by passing the ball. Before that, football was largely a game where one player would run as far as he could with the ball until he lost it.
