The resounding victory, lapidary, incontestable, Barcelona in the Club World Cup, He puts back into the fray a way to watch football in many countries and equipment remains unknown, Playing under 2 basic concepts: with a base "homemade" and with a tactical style assimilated from the basic forces and has been respected despite the passing years, managers, entrenadores y futbolistas.

In times of globalization, open borders indiscriminately Football, where strange not to see alignments with most foreign players in any league in the world, that club remains firm in its philosophy and for almost a decade has assumed the commitment to privilege work at La Masía. Por ello, from arrival at the helm Barca Pep Guardiola, en 2008, was made a "clean" of elements that although they had given lauros the club and had earned a name around the ball, They did not fit into his philosophy not so much game, but work and sacrifice: Brazilian "Ronaldinho" and "Deco".

Sampedor then gave the alternative to Lionel Messi (He born in Argentina but matured precisely at Barça from 12 años), and he made the campus gravitate around its great orbit, and under the moral and tactical leadership of other cracks born in the residence club and training academy: Carles Puyol, Andres Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez. Then, send the ring to other kids (Sergio Busquets and Pedro Rodriguez) soon, impudently, They assume responsibility Barca taking over ownership and extending the Spanish team that dominated Europe and the world for several years.

After the departure of "Philosopher", Catalan bench have come other strategists (Tito vilanova, Gerardo Martino, Luis Enrique Martínez) and they are gone symbols (Puyol and Xavi), but the essence is preserved almost intact, And the results are on sight. The "ticky taca" offensive toils, looking always reach the opponent's area dominated ball in the shortest time possible, is not only a hallmark around the globe, DNA, but it is also a brand that ensures titles and applause.

Meanwhile, the great rival in Spain, the real Madrid, going down the opposite path: buying here and there, trying to build a checkbook coup which failed and wanted to work and patience. No hay una metodología definida, inside or outside the court. Tácticamente, It has gone through various styles to conflicting (Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti), without being able to find a point of agreement that allows us to discover once glorious playing merengue club.

In other countries is no different: en Inglaterra, Chelsea suffers from the same (precisely just the cesar "The Special One", after the league title 2014) and saturates its roster of foreign reinforcements, no matter its price, without thereby trapping respect from fans and press for soccer deployed.

And the pernicious example has come to Mexico, where the champion Tigers, the America and Monterrey (franchises with greater purchasing power) will start the 2016 in the nonsense of having to 12 foreign players among foreigners and nacionalizados-, without guaranteeing them success, y además, creating an almost insurmountable wall where the dreams of dozens of Mexican youth who waste their time waiting for an opportunity that will crash, this step, surely not come in 1st. División, in a country that is precisely characterized by the emergence of new values ​​for Batches.

A) Yes, praise from 2002 as one of the best sports schools in the world, La Masia, faithful DNA, It has set this dynasty that has led Barca to be considered the best team in football history. An identity and an example that should be emulated by other clubs from all latitudes.
