Defending is one thing, hard defending is another, but the combination of any of those two with force counter-attacks is very different. What might have happened here is that the opponent pushed most of his players up and he out-numbered the defending players. This is one of the possible tactics used to beat a defensive with counter-attacks 4-5-1(V).
