11. • X, nicknamed Golden left foot, is a Brazilian footballer
who won the 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico with
Brazil. X is considered one of the best passers in World
Cup history. Although he didn't play well in 1966, he
was the mastermind behind the whole Brazilian
national team in the 1970 tournament. He is regarded
as the best passer and midfielder in that Cup and the
best player in the final match against Italy.
X had his name unfortunately associated with the
infamous X’s law. He starred in a cigarette advertising
campaign in the '70s which had a tagline: “I like to take
advantage of everything.” and became a codeword for
the traditional Brazilian disregard for Laws & Rules.

12. • Gerson de Oliveira Nunes or Gerson.

13. • ___________, is a 1981 film about Allied prisoners of war who are
interned in a German prison camp during World War II. Association
football plays an integral part of the film. The Allied prisoners of war
coached and represented by Englishman John Colby, who was a
professional footballer for West Ham United before the war, agree to play
an exhibition match against a German team, only to find themselves
involved in a German propaganda stunt. In the end, the POWs can leave
the German camp only to play the match; they are to be imprisoned again
following the match. Despite the match officials being heavily biased
towards the Germans, and the German team causing several deliberate
injuries to the Allied players, a draw is achieved after great performances
from Luis Fernandez (portrayed by Pele), Carlos Rey (portrayed by Osvaldo
Ardiles) and Arthur Hayes (portrayed by John Wark). American POW
Robert Hatch plays goalkeeper, and makes excellent saves including one
last save from a penalty kick as time expires to deny the Germans the win,
drawing the game 4–4.

14. • Escape to Victory.

15. • X is a style of play in association football, characterised by short
passing and movement, working the ball through various channels,
and maintaining possession. The style is primarily associated with
La Liga club FC Barcelona and the Spanish national team under
managers Luis Aragones and Vicente del Bosque.
Spanish broadcaster Andres Montes is generally credited with
coining and popularizing the phrase X during his television
commentary for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, although the term was
already in colloquial use in Spanish football and may originate with
Javier Clemente. The phrase's origin may be derived from a juggling
toy named X in Spanish (clackers in English). Some describe X as "a
significant upgrade" of Total Football because it relies on ball
movement rather than players switching position.
X?

16. • Tiki-taka

17. • X is regarded as one of the most successful managers ever, winning
both league and domestic cup titles in the Netherlands, Belgium,
Germany and Austria as well as winning the European Cup twice,
the first in 1970 and the second in 1983, and a runners-up medal at
the 1978 FIFA World Cup. He is the first of three managers to have
won the European Cup with 2 different clubs.
He made his debut for Austria in September 1947 against Hungary
and was a participant at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, where
he helped them reach 3rd place, and also at the 1958 World Cup.
At the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina, X was coach of the Dutch
national team and reached the final against the Argentine national
team. Always a man of few words, X's pre-match pep talk is said to
have consisted of just one sentence: "Gentlemen, two points.“
After his death in 1992, the Praterstadion in Vienna, was renamed X
Stadion.

18. • Ernst Happel(finals of Euro 2008 was held at
the Ernst Happel Stadium)

19. • ___________ is a name attributed by British journalists to
the second metatarsal.
X, while playing against Deportivo La Coruna in a UEFA
Champions League quarter-final game in 2002, was subject
to a tackle from Argentina's Aldo Duscher. This tackle broke
the second metatarsal in his left foot and seriously
threatened his national team's chances in the 2002 World
Cup. X was the media darling at the time, and the bone
(and the tackle) received a wave of publicity. Subsequently,
the name “___________" was born.
Since then, other notable football players including, Daniel
Agger, Gary Neville, Danny Murphy, Michael Owen, Gael
Clichy, Ashley Cole, Ledley King and Lionel Messi have
suffered fractures to the same bone.

20. • Beckham Bone

21. • _____________ was founded on October 30, 1998 in the city of Rosario
but it wasn't until 2001 that they had their first gathering. They now
reportedly count over 100,000 members from more than 60 countries
around the world.
It could be seen as a type of syncretism. It's clear that the passion
between the different members is what glues them together. As Alejandro
Verón, one of the founders tells us "I have a rational religion and that’s the
Roman Catholic church, and I have a religion passed on my heart, passion,
and that’s X."
Supporters of the X Church, supposedly from all parts of the world, count
the years since X's birth in 1960. It is popular among the followers of this
religion, and also among other football fans, to use the neo-
Tetragrammaton "D10S" as one of the names of X. D10S is a portmanteau
word which fuses X's shirt number and Dios, the Spanish word for God.
According to the church of X, it is the year 49 AB.

22. • Iglesia Maradoniana, an official religion in
Argentina formed around Diego Maradona.

23. • The Superga air disaster took place on Wednesday, 4 May 1949,
when a plane carrying almost the entire X football squad, crashed
into the hill of Superga near Turin killing all 31 aboard including 18
players, club officials, journalists accompanying the team, and the
plane's crew. The team was returning from a farewell match for Xico
Ferreira against Benfica in Lisbon.
At the time of the crash, X was leading Serie A with four games left
to play in the season. The club carried on by fielding its youth team
(Primavera) and in a sign of respect their opponents in each of
these matches also fielded their youth sides. Primavera won each of
the matches and the scudetto. The disaster seriously weakened the
country's national side which had included up to 10 players from X.

ribbon is tied around the Cup.
b)Its wrong, because, during the match both
the ribbons are tied around the cup and after

removed.

27. • X was famous for his large moustache, thunderous long-range free
kicks, excellent long passes, quick thinking and distinct way of
controlling the ball. He also invented a football move called the
________, famously copied by Maradona, Ronaldinho, Zlatan
Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo in recent years.
X started as a futsal player at Clube Atletico Barcelona. After that,
he tried his luck with Barcelona's biggest rival in futsal, Corinthians,
where he moved on to professional football and quickly became a
favourite of the fans -- and was therefore nicknamed King of the
Park.
X is sometimes credited with scoring the fastest goal in football
history when he supposedly scored a goal direct from the kick-off
after noticing the opposition goalkeeper on his knees finishing off
pre-match prayers.
