After the score returned to a tie at one-all, the pace of the match completely opened up.
Both sides had clearly found their rhythm and were unstoppable. The tempo began to accelerate.
Real Madrid in particular started putting pressure on Barcelona with their pressing in the middle and front thirds.
After the restart, Barcelona made a passing mistake after barely a minute. Javi Martínez won the ball in their half, and Xabi Alonso sent a diagonal long pass forward. Hazard quickly surged up the left, got to the ball before Alves, brought it under control, and charged toward the penalty area.
"Look at Hazard's run here. He's into the box and uses a Forceful Breakthrough to get past Alves."
"Puyol is coming across to block him."
"Beautiful! Hazard suddenly stops and cuts the ball back, passing it..."
"There's a chance!!!"
"Yang Yang!!!!!"
"It's in!!!!!"
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Barely a minute later, Real Madrid have scored their second goal, and it's Yang Yang again! What a sharp counterattack!"
"My God, Barcelona have conceded twice in two minutes."
"This is incredibly unexpected. We can see that even the Barcelona players look stunned."
"Both attacks came down Real Madrid's left. That should have been an area Barcelona paid special attention to, yet they made mistakes both times. The second goal was partly due to Pique failing to cover in time, but we also have to admit that Hazard's run was superb. He forced the ball through between two defenders."
"As people predicted before the match, this is a clash between the two most powerful attacking combinations in world football today. There is no need to question either side's firepower. The real issue is their defending."
"But right now, Barcelona's defensive problems seem to be bigger and more serious."
"Of course, Real Madrid have problems too.
