Falselona are the most defensive team in Europe, and nobody says that, they keep possession on their own half, making boring passes between xavi-pique, busquets-mascherano, etc in the end people say they had 70 percent of possession, but they had 0 shots against Milan,3 shots last week, and 2 shots today
What's changed now? Real Madrid defensive line is really high but really close with midfielders...now wingers and LB/RB do not follow Barça players movement beyond the defensive line. But that's not all...Real Madrid press Pique and Busquets really up, blocking Barça's clean pass between Madrid's Def Midfielders.
On the other side, Barça do not use wing-play attack very often, even when there's a gap for a good run, so all ends up at the centre of the pitch. Also, both Barça fullbacks go too high at the same time, allowing Madrid's counter-attack be a real threat. Lastly, Barça possesion game used to work because of quick centerbacks, and there's clearly a flop in form.

formation here is wrong. Essien is right back. Centre back is ramos and varane and pepe is defensive midfield.
shame that barca lost against real madrid bench..
poor barca..dint paying reff this match..got too many card..nice 1 madrid..
Now that its 2-1 for Madrid were about to witness a desperate diving Barcelona.
Shame he didn't score that 1 on 1
morata had to score that..
morata is the best player in the game so far
