Two years have passed since the last free-kick goal scored by Barça. the one of Messi in Mestalla. Since then, it’s not that Barça hasn’t found a replacement for the best enforcer -we already know that no one will reach 50 goals from Leo’s free kick in a Barça shirt-, it’s just that we started to cause very few fouls . near the front of the rival area. To keep the numbers from getting messy, just three figures. In the last season of Messi in the group, the boat he had a total of 57 direct fouls. In the 21-22 season, the first none Leo, only 18 fouls were shot. In the current season, 22-23, the same poor numbers continue: 15 fouls and that’s it. Or, what is the same, in two seasons it has shot 33 times, almost half of a season with Leo.
Beyond the small shooting success and no specialist in a team that wants to compete for all the titles, the most important thing is football. boat is away from the opposing goal. This is also shown by the few goals scored and the few penalties awarded in favor because the area is stepped on less than before.
Placed to view the launches, one of the raphinha Against Betis at home, it was the first time all season (1 in 15) that a free-kick went between the three sticks and forced the goalkeeper to make a save. Last season, the person who kicked the most fouls was Memphis DePay. At present is raphinha (9 of 15) and executor of the last five attempts. In practice, who is the most successful? Peter. An official match has yet to be released. He hasn’t kicked a single one yet.
