Annibale Frossi (Italian pronunciation: [anˈniːbale ˈfrɔssi]; 6 July 1911 – 26 February 1999) was an Italian football manager and player, who played as a forward. Frossi is perhaps best known for wearing correctional glasses during his playing years after suffering from myopia from when he was a child. As a footballer, he was a member of the Italy national team, which won the gold medal in the football tournament at the 1936 Summer Olympics, finishing the tournament as top-scorer. As a manager, he is also known for his developments of the theory of catenaccio, which emphasises a defensive style of football. Read more on Wikipedia
