Guardiola on Cruyff: "At half time we had played badly, we expected to be told to push ourselves to fight more, to run more. When Johan spoke, he told us that we were playing badly because we were running too much. You had to send the ball where you wanted it to go and not to run after it."
It highlights Cruyff's emphasis on intelligent play, possession, and control over physicality. He wanted his team to send the ball where they wanted it to go, instead of chasing it around the pitch. This approach emphasizes the importance of understanding the game, making smart choices, and maintaining possession to dictate the rhythm and flow of the match. Memory serves as a reminder of the core principles that underpin both Cruyff's and Guardiola's football philosophies.
