To many will seem them a madness, but from does a time comes posing the possibility that, to avoid the goals of fault of Leo Messi, some technicians decide not putting barrier between the thrower and the goalkeeper. This tactical could begin to use from the next season 2019-20, in which they will give some substantial changes in the rule.

From it does a time, distinct teams have thrown of imagination to avoid the goals of fault of Leo Messi. The pioneering group in inventing a method to brake his shots of free direct was the Athletic of Bilbao, but this same season other teams have squeezed the brains. The PSV and the Tottenham already planned some tactics to stop him in Champions League: a player by behind the barrier with a knee pinned in the grass, another pulled, one escorado to a side to avoid the shot of thread...

In LaLiga Santander 2018-19, a player of the Ray Vallecano ran to backwards to cover a piece of the goal and like this sent to corner a launching of Messi that went direct to goal. The question is to stop anyway to the best thrower of the world, and the same Barça has looked for answer to all these tactics, situating to players in the barrier to distort the field of vision to the goalkeeper.

The next campaign no longer will be able to do it, since some trainers propose not using barriers so that the goalkeeper have the complete vision of the action. Juan Carlos Unzué, that was second with Luis Enrique in the Barça, already ensured in 'RAC1' that some day would not be necessary to put barrier.

A method that Messi can shatter

Unai Emery also contemplated said possibility in the Seville, but at the end threw backwards given the risks that comported to leave freedom to Leo Messi to launch without need of sortear a barrier. It is a formula that it is necessary to test, and that by the moment does not ensure to the teams leave to receive goals of fault of Leo Messi, or of any another player.

Although the goalkeeper have a field of greater vision, Messi will have more eases to plant the balloon where want to. It will be necessary to see, therefore, what is what more compensates to the guardametas to the hour to try protect of the genialidades of the Argentinian star.
