Malcolm Gladwell has a really fascinating article about underdogs using full-court pressing to win in basketball: Annals of Innovation: How David Beats Goliath. He looks at the larger question of underdogs beating better supplied, prepared – whatever – opponents and how it is often because the former don’t respect the (unwritten) rules and are willing to just work a lot harder.
It’s not the same thing, but I think you could make a connection with Total Football.
