L'anti-guide du foot

Synopsis of L'anti-guide du foot

«L'anti-guide du foot» is an anti-guide to football by Guillaume Evin, published by Dunod in paperback (96 pages, in French).

Journalist Guillaume Evin leaves biographies and tactical manuals behind to answer questions almost nobody asks: why goalposts have those dimensions, what goes through a player's head when heading the ball, or whether half-time is for going to the toilet. In this way, the book debunks received ideas and proposes a playful way of looking at football.

Published on 4 April 2018; the subtitle of the work is «Ce que les autres livres ne vous disent pas !».

For football fans who prefer curiosities and anecdotes to the usual biographies or tactical analyses.
