How can friction can help the cause of motion in certain situation?

The direction of friction is always opposite to the direction of relative motion of two bodies in contact.For example :in rolling motion of sphere the relative motion of the sphere (at the point of contact between sphere and ground)with respect ground is backwards, and hence friction acts in forward direction ,there by causing motion .
