The kickback was always a sign of distinction of the teams made.
Of sets with professional footballers under payroll capable of detecting spaces and fine-tuning short or long touches to stab the rivals' backs.
A masterful counterattack in Munich gave Villarreal its second semifinal of the European Cup and this Saturday two other book games opened the way to victory against Getafe (1-2).

The Madrid team had ten games without losing at their stadium.
His strength at the Alfonso Pérez has been the key to salvation within reach after those first eight games without scoring a point.
This defeat complicates his existence again.
His start described that team that at home dares with anyone.
Enes Ünal invented an exquisite heel strike from behind that Aleñá left in front of Rulli.
The bilge of the Argentine goal prevented the goal.
He came out very nice to see Getafe, dominating and enthusiastic.
Until Villarreal, from a mere interception of a long pass near the left side of their area, mounted an old-school counterattack.
As if it were a lifelong midfielder, Trigueros raised his head and took a 40-meter pass for Alcácer's run.
If the long scroll was encyclopedic, no less so was its sibylline touch to the right.
Also on the run, Gerard Moreno executed David Soria looking for the counterfoot.
In three fabulous touches, Villarreal disarmed and deflated Getafe.
He had introduced seven Emery changes with respect to the historic Munich team, but kept the backbone with Rulli, Pau Torres, Parejo and Gerard Moreno.
This is sweet, with those airs of dominator equally of the game, when he plays
midpoint
, and of the goal, when he looks into the area.
And since he has a job, he turned a steal in the center of the field into a lethal drive that ended up giving it away for the second goal that Trigueros nailed with a fine touch.
Another who in full maturity is difficult to see him play a bad game.
The two blows in less than a quarter of an hour broke Getafe, who were able to go into the break with another couple of goals against.
Also by work and grace of two cons.
In the first it was Chukwueze who crossed the lines until he filtered a cross to Trigueros.
Soria covered the top of the steering wheel with his face.
In the second, another shot by Gerard Moreno into space ended with a low cross that Alcacer pushed high at the far post with the entire goal clear.
The wiggle forced Quique to tweak his team at halftime.
Óscar Rodríguez put gunpowder with Borja Mayoral and had revenue shortly after Emery also moved pieces.
Enes Ünal scored his fifteenth goal, putting an end to an inner adventure for Olivera.
Seeing the rise of Getafe, Emery returned to refresh the team and was able to contain the onslaught of Getafe.
He was no longer able to throw so many counters, but with those in the first half it was enough for him.
Gerard Moreno, doubtful for Liverpool
11 days before facing Liverpool in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, the alert went off at Villarreal when Gerard Moreno retired in the 61st minute with muscle discomfort.
In a long ball that struggled with Cuenca, the yellow striker had a muscle problem and requested the change immediately.
Moreno, scorer of the first goal in Getafe, drags a season with many physical problems.
So far this season he has missed 19 games.
