Real Sociedad came up with an unprecedented plan to help Leonel Messins score the goal from cheap shooting at Saturday's meeting against Barcelona in La League.
Messi, however, scored Barça's score of triumph 1:0, carrying out the penalty for turning his team to the top of La League.
Messie had achieved an extraordinary goal against Sociedad two seasons earlier, and La Real players made sure that the Argentinians didn't repeat it on Saturday in Camp Nou.
Coach Imanol Alguacil's plan was to populate the goalkeeper's area by putting as many players as possible in front of the ball, instead of setting a traditional protective wall. She immediately noticed this tactic, but she was not impressed.
Messy pulled the ball, never looking to shoot at the gate, and Socied's defense threw the ball away without trouble.
