The past campaign, his first as Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski marked 33 goals in 46 parties and delivered 8 assistances. His targets were decisive to conquer the title of League, where besides topped like Pichichi, and also the Supercopa of Spain. This season, his registers have gone down notoriously, marking 8 goals and giving 4 assistances in 16 parties, figures no of the all negative but that yes that mark a shrinking so much in numbers, as in feelings.
The Pole has seen like his average scorer has fallen to 0,5 goals by party, something that for another type of footballer would be very positive, but no for the '9' headline of a FC Barcelona that besides seems to have increasingly doubts with regard to the ascending wage of the goleador with regard to the following season. More still without we take into account performances of Lewandowski like the one of this Sunday in front of the Athletic of Madrid.
The Barça, with problems of regularity of his leading centre
In front of the rojiblancos the ariete of 35 years has finished being the lowest point of the Barcelona team, playing besides the 90 minutes, but without being able to be decisive neither important in almost any moment. Although 'Sofascore' has reflected him 1.50 in goals expected, the reality of the meeting has had to a Lewandowski with 4 finish, all by out of the three sticks, and a participation in the almost invalid game.
The Polish forward has been able to complete 19 of his 21 passes, but both figures seem to remain very far of what is used to to have a forward of the Barça, further of his profile of '9' a bit more 'classical', although if we compare it with his mates of attack, Joao Félix and Raphinha, the reality is that it has finished remaining to the half of passes tried. To this besides add it to him the -only- three dribblings that achieved successfully, of six tried.
Very little of Lewandowski in front of the Athletic
Although Xavi at all times has backed to his goleador, leaving clear that the team has to look for it much more, also is true that in at least a pair of occasions this Sunday, Lewandowski has not been fine. It failed a volley after a very good centre from the right, and especially, saw him lost to the hour to achieve societies with his mates, taking into account also that in the aerial game does long that it does not finish being a solution for the team.
