@charlafootball: Marc Crosas shared a surprising story about the Spanish coach: during a conversation with Barcelona players, Guardiola highlighted Ricardo La Volpe’s Mexico national team as a reference for playing out from the back. While historic teams like Brazil in 1970 and Arrigo Sacchi’s AC Milan were being discussed, Pep reportedly pointed to Mexico’s 2006 World Cup team for its ability to build from the back. ⚽🇲🇽 A team remembered for its playing style that, according to this anecdote, was also studied within Barcelona’s environment. 💬 How far could that Mexico team have gone if they had beaten Argentina in 2006?
