Do you see now? When in the US they say soccer is boring coz it’s a low scoring game, it’s because they don’t understand this kind of stuff. The beauty and tension in the build up is a spectacle in itself.
It being low scoring makes it good tho they just don't understand that. Makes every goal more special more impactful than having a game that has 50+ points every game
Pep Guardiolas Barcelona 2008 - 2012 were the best at it IMO, their style (called “Tiki Taka” by most) built on a Dutch method called total football which was brought to Barcelona by Johan Cruyff, Arsenal and Liverpool have used a similar style in the past, Liverpool had great success with their “pass and move” style during the 80s
The best at doing it was Barcelona (there a video like this but with Barca only) they often reached 70% possession and i think one time they had 80% at some point
They were the best at it because they had the perfect players for it, they were coach was one of the best coach ever, and also the 3 main players (Xavi, Iniesta and Messi) were at the club since they're 18 or less so their chemistry was on another level
3:41 "What's the best passing team in history?" Barcelona, around 2009-2015. No doubt. Prime Xavi, Inietsta and Messi was ridiculous. There's a reason you see them so much in this video. (You even pointed that out.) Btw, as you said, not everyone can do this. The reason Barca were so amazing at it is because many of their players literally grew up together. They played in Barca's youth team since they were around 13 years old. They know where the other player will be without looking.
There are no set plays in football, but tiki taka is just “pass and move” so it makes it hard for the defenders to track both the ball and the running attacker. But yeah there are absolutely no set plays unless it’s a free kick or a corner, most of the time these guys are just smart and they know where all their teammates are so they pass it quickly
@bethelchris2016 no he's referring to plays like they have in American football. That sport is a lot more stop start and they like select plays for certain situations (I'm pretty sure - I don't follow the sport). So when Americans first stsrt watching football it can take them some time to understand football is a lot more fluid - more like Basketball. He's definitely not talking about patterns of play.
12:36 Btw that move that you said you love, it's called a "dummy". Also fun NBA fact. Barcelona's tiki-taka is inspiration behind Golden State Warriors tactics, says NBA star Klay Thompson.
3:41 if you want to see a better version of this tiki-taka stuff, then you got to react to: FC Barcelona Tiki-Taka masterclass !! A lot of teams have mastered this style of football, but none have done it better than FC Barcelona, especially during pep guardiola's reign "2008-2012" 8:28 Yes, that's FC Barcelona, of course they'll be a lot of barca clips in this one they're the kings of this sh*t.. 8:38 You're absolutely right !
Thanks bro I appreciate the info and time stamps for sure … I knew FC Barcelona had to be the best at tiki taka they had all the top highlights in this video IMO … ima definitely have to check out the masterclass vid … thanks again
First clip nd last clip was Arsenal btw, a team good at sharing the ball. there's good tiki taka and bad tiki taka, the good makes players lose their formation and shape/move the ball forward for a chance at goal and the bad is just passing it around with no movement and wasting time. every team can do it bc its just one touch passing, but very few can pull off good progressive tiki taka
Passing it around isn't necessarily wasting time though. Holding onto the ball is a tactic used to win games. The more you have the ball the more tired the opposition get trying to win it back. And you're holding it looking for a moment where the opposition lose their formation/aren't compact enough to exploit and score from. As Pep said, they can't score if we have the ball. Obviously progressive tiki taka is good but you can't do it non stop for 90 minutes. Often, getting control of the game, asserting dominance over the opposition and playing the game at your tempo is needed.
FC Barcelona are the creators of Tikki Taka. Mastered by the midfield trio of Xavi Hernandez, Andreas Iniesta, Sergi Busquets, with the 🐐 Lionel Messi scoring most of the goals.
definitly barca, is the best tiki taka team ever, they evolved the game, they took the world by surprise in 2009 winning every trophy possible (6) in a season, they destroyed teams like real madrid and Manchester united, bayern, they humiliated manchester united (who were considered at the time the best team in europe) in 2009 champions league final, teams just couldnt get the ball from them
iki-taka or Tiqui-taca is a style of play in Spain's football, characterised by short passing and movement, working the ball through various channels, and maintaining possession. The style is primarily associated with the Spain national team since 2006 by the managers Luis Aragonés and Vicente del Bosque.
The "move" you like that you spoke of when the player receiving the ball allows it to pass between their legs instead is called a "Dummy" in street soccer. Very effective for opening up space quickly or making space for a teammate to shoot. And it looks filthy slick🔥⚽️
The best to ever do it is Fc Barcelona. In the year 2009 especially. Everyone said it’s the best team in history. Rect to “the favelas won’t forget about Neymar”
Barcelona is the king of tiki taka. In futbol there is one ball and whoever keeps it controls the outcome. If your opponent doesn’t get the ball they can’t score. The 2009-2011 Barcelona team was a monster. They had 60-80% ball possession. Spain won the 2010 world cup with 7 of the starting 11 being futbol club Barcelona players. Total futbol was brought to Barcelona by Johan Cruyff (from the Netherlands) and became the “Barça style”. Pep Guardiola in my opinion perfected this style. It can so badly overwhelm the opponents that they are running around chasing the ball and it’s like they are chasing shadows. By the time they get there the ball has already been quickly passed to another player. The physical energy wasted chasing around a ball they can’t get to is killer. By the second half your opponent is exhausted. Watching this tiki taka Barcelona team was like watching a choreographed dance. Best thing ever! Iniesta, Xavi and Busquets were the midfield that controlled the pace of the game. Futbol in it’s purest form.
Tiki taka is like the triangle used in basket ball. React to Thierry Henry , he’s arsenals all time top goal scorer and always a reason why a lot of black kids in the UK support arsenal
You have to do team defending to stop it. As the passer runs after passing, the defender has to have the self-discipline to stay with him and deny him the pass back. It does take a bunch of offensive players being in the same proximity to properly complete so many passes, so a good counter-attack is to have very fast wingers who could counter-attack once the ball is taken. Bayern Munich destroyed Barcelona one year thanks to this strategic response.
I do not know if there's a specific name in english to that move in which the player let the ball pass trought him leaving the pass/or shooting to his teammate. In Brazil we name it "corta-luz", what would be in english the "equivalent" expression for "cut light" (in a completely free translation). Perhaps it's an alusion to the front lights of the cars, when you keep switching light (lights on, lights off lights on... ) to send a signal to the car in front of yours on the road. (I'm sorry if my english was not clear enough. I hope you got it).
FC BARCELONA 🔵🔴 is the best team in football when it comes to the passing ball ⚽️ but there are others team clubs too who are similar to Barcelona like Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Real Madrid who are very good on the ball ❤
"That wasn't tiki taka that was tricky tricky" 😂 love it. Just a suggestion mate - try and balance your mic volume to the video volume just your very quiet
Some of these are tiki-taka but not all of them, some of these were just very nice passing plays but not tiki-taka. But tiki-taka is pretty rare so guess the one who made the compilation needed to get a longer vid so he used passing plays as well as tiki-taka. There are 2 teams who use tiki-taka often and its Barcelona and Arsenal. A lot of other teams do it too but arsenal and barcelona do it the most and the best
Its not really plays tbh. In football there's a lot of fluidity and freedom. Players make decisions in the moment to pass or drive forward with the ball, to come short to recieve the ball or run in behind for a long ball. Obviously teams are organised and there will be a general philosophy of how the manager wants the team to play but the players on the pitch make the decisions in the moment. Its not stop start like American football so its all about fluidity.
Brilliant but dull as ditchwater to watch. Ten minutes of action and 80 minutes of keep ball. Wimbledon long ball would destroy this if they could get the ball.

Pep's Baracelona was probably the best at this.
Without a doubt
Arsenal invincibles is in the comversation
@@Hozza96 they didn't play tika taka
That's the best team I've ever seen. I'd pick them to win against any other team of any era.
@@Two.4aa bro, look at some highlights from arsenal invincible. They played tiki-taka. Wenger’s philoshyphy was based around tiki-taka

@@bethelchris2016 maybe, but “set” means it’s pre-determined, so I clarified

Barcelona is crowned as the greatest for tiki taka but Manchester city is currently the best at it
Finally! This is one of my favourite types of football honestly

Is football or soccer all plays are made up on the spot except for certain set pieces but it’s all creative and free flow plays

Barcelona use to be the best tiki taka team
BARCELONA the team to watch, best team ever
Tiki Taka was a particular Spanish flavour and philosophy of play, best displayed by the two top teams in Spain, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona.
Real Madrid 💀💀

Tiki taka is out.
