"La Liga" championship and in the Champions League, the team "Barcelona" defends confidently.
In 12 Spanish championship matches, Ernesto Valverde's players have conceded only 4 goals, and this indicator is the best in the league. Things are not going bad either in the Old Continent tournament - 5 matches and only one goal conceded by opponents.
The club leader Lionel Messi revealed the reason for the ironclad defense to the publication "Marca."
"After Neymar's departure, we had to change our playing style. We lost a huge potential in attack, but it gave us the opportunity to defend better. Now the center of our field is well protected, we are more balanced and defend confidently," said L. Messi.
