İsmail Kürsü's Podcast

Welcome to *The Evolution of Soccer Tactics*, where we dive deep into the fascinating journey of football tactics through history. Host Ismail Arda Kursu takes you on a chronological tour of how soccer has transformed over centuries, from its chaotic and attacking roots in the 19th century to the structured strategies of modern times.

From the dramatic 1-2-7 formation to the balanced pyramid in the late 19th century, then to Johan Cruyff's Total Football in the 20th century and Pep Guardiola’s iconic Tiki Taka formation in the new millennium, we explore how each era shaped today’s game. But don’t miss the recent twist—how Jurgen Krieters' Gagenpress redefined contemporary play.

Join Ismail as he shares the stories behind these formations, their impact on the sport, and what they mean for football today. Whether you're a soccer fan or an aspiring strategist, *The Evolution of Soccer Tactics* will give you a unique perspective on this world-changing sport. Thanks for listening—we can’t wait to see where you’ll take your game!
