A style of football played by managers such as Pep Guardiola, Mikel Arteta, Gareth Southgate and various Spanish football teams.
It involves playing a high possession style of football that can be extremely boring to watch, as it devolves into a team spamming crosses until they get lucky and score.
Despite this, pundits and mainstream voices often describe it as “attractive” and “exiting” , whilst dismissing older and more traditional styles of football. Thus the term “Wokeball”.

“Wokeball is so boring to watch, all they do is spam crosses and hope it works out. Inshallah Albania will beat them with only 20% possession”
