Leo Messi is a headache from all the positions of the field and in every aspect for all the rivals of the world. This has turned into a dogma, in an absolute law during the last times. However, the fact that in this 2017 was increasing the percentage of tarpaulin in the goals of fault is a worry more for Unai Emery in Paris Saint-Germain.
The FC Barcelona confronts this Tuesday to the PSG in the gone of eighth of final of Champions League, and in spite of that the Basque technician has descartado carry out a special tactics to brake the goals of fault of Leo Messi, yes ensured days backwards that posed this option, taking into account that the Argentinian star seems especially enchufado in this concrete appearance of the game.
The tactics to combat the faults of Messi
"Now there is a new norm that are looking for all as combat it and is that the referee paints the line in the barriers. Before, in a barrier, you advanced you always three metres and hit a jump and already was. Now they put you the line that with the line and no longer can you advance, and the effectiveness in the golpeos has increased. And we are all the trainers looking what invent to counter this and that the effectiveness go down", began Emery then, when they asked him in this regard.
"We think that it could be a valid system against the effectiveness of Messi"
"There is a team in France that we study, the Nice B, in which a strike frontal instead of putting to 9.15 metres put under the goal. We think that it could be a valid system against the effectiveness of Messi, that already had done us two goals in the Supercopa of Europe (when Emery trained to the Seville). We were valuing if do it or not to do it. If we arrive it to do could have happened two things: that we had remained like the inventors of a new part of the football or that said us that we are the silliest".
In spite of his words, does not foresee that Paris Saint-Germain carry out a special tactics when Leo Messi kick the faults, although yes it could do it to the hour to attack to the Barça by the left band, since Leo Messi is not so aggressive in the pressure of balloon as it is it Neymar Jr, able to arrive the Brazilian until the corner of the Barça defending a played of rival attack.
