how do international football players communicate with each other and with the coaches and referees?

308 viewsOther

If you watch the English, Italian, French or Spanish leagues then you know how all the football clubs comprise of players from every country you can think of. Some of these players don’t even know a word of English. Same thing for the coaches and for the referees. So how exactly do they communicate during training sessions and more importantly during official matches? I see the sometimes arguing over a foul or a yellow card so how?

I had heard once that referees were given a few derogatory terms/phrases in some of the different languages so they’d know what a player may be saying to them
