'Lewy' is unstoppable
Lewandowski has scored more goals in La Liga than Atlético's top two scorers combined
The season for FC Barcelona's '9' has been sublime. He is the top scorer in LaLiga, the leader of the Golden Boot and the top scorer in the Champions League
Lewandowski's goals have been fundamental to the Barça's good performance this season. Despite the fact that, in recent weeks, Barça has not been performing well due to various tactical aspects, the Polish striker continues to score goals. In total, he has 23 goals in 23 games. Focusing on the shot in La Liga, he has 16, which is 32% of the total 50 that FC Barcelona has scored in the championship.
In the ranking of top scorers in the domestic competition, the former Bayern striker rests peacefully at the top. He is followed, with 11 goals, by his teammate Raphinha, but he is also far from 'Lewy'. You have to go down to ninth and tenth places to find the names of Atlético de Madrid's top scorers, who are Alexander Sorloth and Antoine Griezmann, both with 7 goals. Not even the two of them, both with the same number of games played as the FC Barcelona striker, could catch up with the leader of the table.
This weekend, Barça will host Atlético at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. It is a vitally important match and it will be the one that will decide who goes into the Christmas break as winter champions. Both teams are tied with 38 points, although the Catalans have played one more game than the Colchoneros. Both teams will need the help of their scorers to win a duel that promises to be a spectacle.
In the last 5 games played in all competitions, Griezmann is the one who has scored the most goals. The French striker has managed to send the ball into the back of the net on 6 occasions. On the other hand, his teammate Sorloth, who is not usually a starter, has 2 goals. Finally, Robert Lewandowski has 3 goals in that number of games. It is clear that the former 'Les Bleus' player is in better shape, but the Blaugrana striker will be eager to score after the missed chances against Leganés. This Saturday two teams with immense offensive potential will face each other.
