It's boring. Senator Clay Davis would call it terrorism football.
Brazil's brand of football is to hang onto the ball, but they create chances with short passes and make it entertaining. France's football flows and it's super entertaining.
Spain hold the ball for the sake of holding the ball, and grind and grind and grind. Not entertaining. 2008-2012 was a dark time for football.
