While some believe this word X in football comes from a popular kids game that made this X sound, but some others believe that Javier Clemente, Atletico Madrid Coach first termed this word.
But mainly, theorists consider that Andres Montes' commentary of the 2006 World Cup Game of Y vs. Tunisia where Montes said X twice while describing team Y's method of passing the ball around.
Since then, several new styles have invented around this like park the bus or high press but this remains the core.
What style X? Which national team that popularised this Y?
