The Civil Guard interfered with the facilities of Spanish Football Federation two weeks ago within the framework of a investigation for alleged irregularities in contracts for their own benefit, with the Saudi Super Cup at the fore.
The research is named ‘Operation Brody’. And why was this name chosen? It’s not free and there’s a reason.
John Alexander Brody is inventor of networks of soccer goals and Luis Rubiales I made one network around football which caused those responsible for the investigation to christen the operation with this name.
Alexander Brody is a engineer and great admirer of Evertonwho decided to take the step of ‘invent‘ The networks for goals following a match played in 1889 between Liverpool’s ‘blue’ team and Accrington. At that time, goals consisted of two vertical sticks joined above by a horizontal one; no networks.
In this match, the referee a goal did not agree which mean tie and he didn’t think it was good because he said it didn’t get in. And that’s where Brody’s idea came from.
Networks were used for the first time January 12, 1891. The premiere was held in a match, as a test. And its positive results lead to FA Cup Final of that year, played in the month of March, will be used in an official match.
Alexander Brody didn’t know that 135 years later His idea was to baptize an investigation that could end in the removal of a plot of corruption and money laundering by the leadership of the Royal Spanish Football Federation.
