Lamine Yamal and Raphinha are not only fundamental for FC Barcelona in terms of goals and assists, but they also lead the team in another crucial record
The FC Barcelona is having an unstoppable 2024/25 season, boasting truly overwhelming offensive records. In 11 matches played (nine wins and two losses), under Hansi Flick's guidance, they hold an impressive statistic of 34 goals scored, with an exceptional scoring average of (3.09 goals per game), one of the best, if not the best, in all of Europe.
In this regard, the name grabbing all the attention is that of Robert Lewandowski, who has currently amassed 10 goals and two assists. However, he is not the sole architect of this stellar moment the team is experiencing, as two stars stand out prominently: Lamine Yamal and Raphinha.
Both forwards stand out not only for their goals (five for Lamine and six for Raphinha) and assists (five for Lamine and six for Raphinha), but also for the fact that both the Spaniard and the Brazilian lead Barcelona and LaLiga EA Sports 24/25 in effectively executed key passes. This statistic measures all final passes that create goal-scoring opportunities, even if they do not necessarily result in a goal.
The statistic where Lamine Yamal and Raphinha 'dominate' in Barcelona and LaLiga
Lamine Yamal and Raphinha lead LaLiga in this category with a total of 10 key passes each so far in the season, surpassing other players like Sergio Gómez from Real Sociedad (8), Iñaki Williams from Athletic Club (8), and Vinicius Jr. from Real Madrid (8). This demonstrates that they are not only capable of scoring and assisting but also of being a constant source of danger for opposing defenses.
