The offside trap made use of by La Liga champions Barcelona was taken full advantage of once more on Sunday evening.
This allowed Celta Vigo to notch an immediate equaliser after Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring in the meeting between the sides at Balaídos.
Just seconds on from Marcus Rashford being denied at one end, Celta split Barcelona’s backline wide open, before Sergio Carreira picked out the bottom corner.
And a still shot of the moment the hosts broke through says more than a thousand words could, as showcased below:
This of course marks just the latest occasion on which an opponent has utilised Barcelona’s high defensive line against them to devastating effect over recent weeks.
In fact, just days ago, the Blaugrana were forced to settle for a share of the spoils in a Champions League meeting with Club Brugge, after the latter repeatedly managed to get in behind en route to finding the net three times.
