They enchanted the footballing world with their ‘Total Football’ at the 1974 World Cup. A style of play that is still influencing teams, clubs and ideologies today. It is a style of football that mirrored the cultural revolution in Amsterdam at the time. This is the story of how Cruyff, Michels and Ajax changed the way we play football today. This is the seventeenth in a series, written by Jonathan Wilson, exploring the entire history of football. Illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
