Welcome to Cruyff Corner
“Football is a game you play with your mind.”
Football is a rich tapestry of skill, community, history and hysteria.
In Cruyff Corner, you’ll find mind-blowing facts, stats, quizzes, and history of the game.
We dedicated this section to, perhaps, the greatest mind the game has ever known. A true visionary, as both a player and as a coach. Hendrik Johannes Cruijff was a genius. And a box of everything good about the game.
You can test your own knowledge of the game in our quizzes (feel free to send your scores to us on Bluesky). We’ll introduce you to some of the historical greats of the game. Some you will know, others you might not! And we’ll pull up ridiculous stats like Fontaine’s 13 goals scored at the 1958 World Cup.
In a nutshell, this Copa Mondo section has everything you will ever need to give you a richer understanding of the game we all love.
Enjoy!
