catenaccion.

Brit.

/ˌkatəˈnatʃɪəʊ/, U.S.

/ˌkɑtnˈɑtʃ(i)oʊ/

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian catenaccio.

Etymology: < Italian catenaccio (only recorded from 1963 in this sense in Italian dictionaries), spec. sense of catenaccio bolt (14th cent.) < catena chain + -accio ( < classical Latin -āceus : see -aceous suffix). The spec. use in Italian is apparently after French verrou bolt, formerly used in Switzerland to describe a similar system, developed in the 1930s; compare:1973 P. Arnold & C. Davis Hamlyn Bk. World Soccer 196/3 Before the Second World War, Switzerland..developed a system known as verrou, or ‘the bolt’... The Italian clubs..who took over ‘the bolt’ in the fifties..transformed it into the depressingly defensive catenaccio system.

Association Football.

A defensive system of play, originating in Italy in the 1960s, in which each attacking player is marked by one defender, with an additional defender, or libero, as cover. Also in later use: any very defensive system of play, esp. one employing a libero. Cf. libero n.
