Terrified Of Messi’s Free-Kick Prowess, Sociedad Defends With Entire Team In Box

Defending Lionel Messi free kicks is one of the most terrifying experiences for a soccer team. If he strikes it the way he wants, which happens more often than not, there’s likely nothing an opponent can do to prevent a goal on a free kick from within 20-25 yards. Messi has scored 19 free kicks since the start of the 2017-18 season.

You can’t blame Real Sociedad for its tactics to defend against a Messi free kick on Saturday at the Camp Nou.
