15 passes in about 20 seconds? Barcelona may have mastered the art of tiki-taka, short one and two-touch passing (normally formed in shifting triangles created by three footballers), but Villarreal showed us this past weekend against Valencia that the likes of Borja Valero are on to you, Xavi. The best part of this clip has to be the reaction of the fans. This sequence didn’t lead to a goal in the end, but it was a stunning passage of play that received a well-earned standing ovation.
