Why Futsal Will lead to the Next Generation of Football Players

The increasing popularity of Futsal is starting to be seen in professional football, with players such as Max Kilman working their way into the Wolves first team. England manager Gareth Southgate stated how futsal will be the key to developing succesful football players in the future, given how it develops some of the most important skills needed to succeed. In this video I will give you a run down of some of the basic strategies in futsal which are common at both elite and amateur level.

For the individual footballer, it looks like futsal has tremendous transferable benefit. The ability to work the ball effectively in small spaces, managing quick turnarounds, the importance of first touch, being able to manage an intense tempo and from my personal experience, the fitness demands are really something lol. From a tactical perspective, the football manager gets a more well rounded individual with superior ball playing skills.

[@FootballMeta]

Lol you're right about the fitness demands, futsal is a killer! It's definitely a sport that should be included for any young player's development

[@balemohamad6135]

We need a lot more videos on futsal formation and tactics like this! Keep up the great work! ❤

[@wesleydalebout1553]

High quality video, keep up the great work!

[@JasonYeo]

Great video and I agree with the other comments, I think some real match analysis would be great to see these tactics in action.

[@FootballMeta]

Thank you, I'll make sure to do so in future episodes

[@jvcibri]

A lot of brazilian players have a futsal background. You can find videos of Ronaldinho, Neymar and other players playing it in their childhood

[@isaiah7640]

Not anymore, neymar the last one left

[@max_moss]

Most of history's greatest players from Brazil, Argentina, Spain and Portugal have background from futsal. All the Brazillian greats accept Romario (he started playing futsal after he retired :) Messi, Maradona, C. Ronaldo, Zidane, Xavi..the list is very long.

Beautiful video! Great explaination of Futsal's basics. I hope you'll talk about it again in the future. Maybe analysing some matches. Because in this game (and also for understand how it could be useful for modern football, in particular in youth's growth) is fundamental to understand the difference in terms of space and time for the action, for every action on the field.
A question: do you think some tactics, as they are, could be used by professional teams?

[@FootballMeta]

Thank you! I definitely want to do more futsal content in the future. And yes, I think some futsal tactics can be seen in football. I think managers like guardiola have bridged the gap with fast passing and constant movement.. especially when he managed Barcelona. And maybe the aggressive defensive high press could be linked to how futsal teams defend

[@mikemikeetoo9094]

Nice video!!

[@waseemalibrahim295]

Great video 💙🔥

[@igor-letters-and-numbers]

Great content! You might try in the future to analyze/show some tactics move from the actual game, something like short clips that are related to the positioning/moves that you just explained and such. Looking forward to the more futsal videos!

[@FootballMeta]

Thank you! Yes that's a great idea, in future videos on more specific tactics I'll add some clips from matches to help illustrate!

[@gvogas]

Great video. How about a beach soccer version when the next BSWC comes?

[@Rondren]

Advanced tactics please! Just started amateur futsal and I'm learning alot.

[@BryantNoriega-rd3rf]

I do love this video

[@technikleo3797]

Wissam Ben Yedder also played futsal before starting regular football. He even went as far as playing for the french futsal NT.

[@jawelNeezeker]

Basicly all the brazilian legends played futsal when they were younger

[@MGH727]

Fixo, Ala, Pivo are the more common terms. I never heard anyone say "back pivot" its always Fixo.

[@bohemiangrowve3316]

Never knew Futsal was this complex

[@dicksonkadau357]

Great

[@mas_ganendra]

so futsal key is chemistry and individual skill, not much advantage from tactical approach as i see so far, idk pls enlighten if i wrong

[@joaohuster4915]

most of the greatest south american footballers started playing futsal at a very young age, is where they develop their tecnical skills. Messi ,Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Neymar, Romario

[@max_moss]

Not Romario. He is actually the only one of the great Brazillians who didn't play futsal.

[@harrisonbricknell2330]

With your own experience of playing futsal, which formation did your team play the most or which formation did you find was most effective

[@FootballMeta]

Initially we played the 2-2 but didn't really achieve much success with it. from when we switched to the 3-1 and started to understand some of the rotations then we looked a lot better, winning the league and the cup!

[@definitenyoni174]

Give us more footsal tactics boss

[@isaiah7640]

[@Tuca46]
