From ¡Vaya pepinazo! ('what a great big cucumber!'), used by the Spanish to express delight at a particularly impressive long-range curling shot, to Cola de vaca ('cow's tail'), a Mexican term used to describe a player able to repeatedly change direction quickly, this unique book celebrates the rich, quirky and highly imaginative language used to describe football's different goals, incidents, actions and tricks, in over 14 different languages. With entries chosen for the vivid and entertaining imagery they conjure up, this is the first book to explore the global glossary of football.
