Parking the Bus in Soccer: A Defensive Tactic with a Colorful Name

This podcast episode delves into the strategic soccer tactic known as parking the bus. This defensive approach involves a team putting all their players behind the ball to protect a lead or stifle a stronger opponent. The term gained popularity after José Mourinho used it to describe a game where his Chelsea team drew zero-zero with Tottenham. The tactic has been used by various teams, including Italys Catenaccio, Chelsea under Mourinho, Atlético Madrid under Simeone, and even Greece in their Euro 2004 victory.
