    Fútbol increíble Autor: Luciano Wernicke Registro de propiedad intelectual: 75.494 “Fútbol increíble” no sólo es una recopilación de anécdotas increíbles y casos curiosos del más popular de los deportes. Cada una de sus 400 historias fue seleccionada cuidadosamente para integrar diecisiete capítulos, en los que la pelota rueda por sitios como restaurantes, casinos, hospitales o baños; es jugada por perros o caballos; o simplemente actúa como testigo de expulsiones extrañas y los festejos de goles más alocados. Un árbitro que se autoexpulsó, un arquero que se dejó vencer porque detrás del alambrado un hincha lo apuntaba con un revólver, un exitoso delantero que firmó un contrato por chocolate y papas fritas, un sordomudo vio la roja por “insultar”, un perro que anotó un golazo, una dirigente despedida por enamorarse de un colega de un club rival y un defensor que llevaba una muñeca inflable a las concentraciones son algunos de los sucesos más sorprendentes incluidos en este libro. Festival de canes Aunque la palabra “perro” no fue contemplada en el reglamento del fútbol, no pasa un solo fin de semana sin que se haga presente en cada estadio o potrero, ya sea en boca de algún espectador “calentón” o de un irritado jugador ante un increíble gol perdido por un compañero. En la jerga futbolera, este vocablo es sinónimo de “tronco”, “burro”, “madera”, calificativos para pintar a quien posee pobres recursos técnicos. Los canes aparecen asimismo dentro de las canchas de la mano (o la correa) de la policía: en muchos coliseos del mundo mastines entrenados son llevados dentro del campo para amedrentar a los hinchas a no traspasar las cercas.

  • American Football Players in Finland: the Cultural Differences
    American football players in Finland: The cultural differences Mikael Viljanen Bachelor’s thesis 2019 Summary Author Mikael Viljanen Degree programme Liiketalouden koulutusohjelma (Eng. Bachelors of Business Administrations) The title of the thesis Pages American football players in Finland: The cultural differences 43 + 33 The goal for this research was to discover and analyze the cultural differences between Finnish and American cultures, more specifically between Finnish and American athletes playing American football in Finland. This was done by interviewing American athletes who have played American football in Finland as professional import players. The interview the writer held was a qualitative open-ended question interview and was conducted to five American athletes who have played American football in Finland. The framework for this thesis is earlier cross-cultural research about Finland and United States. The writer uses the cultural dimension theories by cross-cultural researchers Geert Hofstede and Fons Trompenaars to research about the ways in which the two research groups could be culturally different. Despite Finnish and American culture are perceived quite similar to each other in the theo- retical framework of this thesis, this thesis did find out there is distinctive differences be- tween Finnish and American culture according to the research interviews. The cultural dif- ferences are mostly in the cultural dimensions of power distance, individualism, masculin- ity, specificness and affectiveness of the researched Finnish and American cultures. This thesis explains what each of these cultural dimensions stand for, as well as explaining the theory of cultural dimensions in general. An important background difference between the two research groups is that the game of American football is played very differently in Finland and in United States.

Date : 1 diciembre 2017 Participantes: 1 / 44 Cuadernos de Fútbol Revista de CIHEFE https://www.cihefe.es/cuadernosdefutbol Fueron treinta y dos campeones los que tomaron parte en esta edición. La presencia del Hansa Rostock como último equipo que defendió el pabellón de Alemania Oriental era la confirmación de la unión de los dos estados a lo largo del 1991. Era el reflejo más inmediato de los trascendentes cambios políticos que sacudieron a Europa. También el Dinamo de Kiev fue el último campeón soviético porque como consecuencia de la desintegración de la Unión Soviética se dio paso a un ente deportivo internacional fantasma, la Comunidad de Estados Independientes, para dar espacio legal de manera circunstancial a la nueva conformación de Europa. Yugoslavia también empezaba a desmoronarse como república federal y se registraban los primeros movimientos separatistas.
