What?
That Humphrey, as a man of taste and discernment, knows all this stuff about World War II and Norse mythology.
And when he's talking about the bridge at Arnhem and landing at Nijmegen, all I'm thinking is Vitesse and NEC.
Yeah, of course.
I don't know anything about anything.
I'm a pathetic one-dimensional individual.
Yeah, they're two different conceptions of what football is and how you succeed at it.
So I think what's nice about both is that they are truly reflective of their own cultures.
Spain in the last 25 years have become probably the most complete football culture there is in terms of the style of play is taught to kids across the country, little bit of an asterisk in the Basque country where it's slightly different.
They play the same way.
They have the same principles.
And what you get is a style that kind of is natural and innate to everybody.
I think Argentina are a little bit like that, but it's a more complicated thing.
Obviously, so many of them leave Argentina when they're 16, 17, 18.
That makes it harder.
the yeah or even 13 for the little fella baby the but they do play a distinctively argentine style although short passes that's very argentine the kind of the emphasis on the one individual to make things happen to conduct the orchestra that's very argentine so you do have you do have that contrast in styles you do have that sense of the total collective against something that's built around an individual science on one side superstition on the other
reason against unreason.
And that is what makes it fascinating.
Plus the fact that it's the South American champions and it's the European champions.
Never happened before in a World Cup final.
