Why does relationism resonate with Brazilian culture so much? Because from a young age they play not from coaching exposure but shared intention of possibilities. Fustal could be a catalyst in Europe for encouraging more player led actions if we made it accessible at youth level

Interesting that you mention it isn't as accessible in Europe. I live in SEA, and the maintenance of public parks and fields are few and far in between. This makes futsal more enticing as 1. easier maintenance of a court rather than field 2. 1 football fields = 3-4 futsal courts

In England there is a culture built around 6 a side football on awful artificial pitches. But most participants are older than 18, they do it for social reasons. There’s no reason why in the UK we can’t have a futsal revolution at youth level & away from the artificial pitches

This field is massive for this age level. In America we would break that into 3 and play across the width to maximize numbers and profit to also cover the huge rental cost of probably $200+ an hour

Futsal is part of the brazilian football culture, our greatest players have influence of this like Ronaldo Nazário, Ronaldinho, Neymar and others, because it encourages finding solutions in short spaces and tricks.

North East of England and our 2 play/played futsal We love it

They do have this in southern and eastern Europe. The UK and Northern Europe seem to be the most resistant to it. Britain in particular culturally seems to dislike the idea, maybe because they've always viewed technical dribblers as being too soft.

The 10 is a proper ten that you don't see in Europe now

Cuándo llegan al juego de posición adios magia

During my youth football time, futsal was regularly played during the indoor season. All the official tournaments by the association were played by futsal rules

Looks like a young version of Pablo Aimar
