Barcelona Misses Lewandowski's Scoring Prowess: A Decline in Form
Robert Lewandowski's recent dip in performance has coincided with Barcelona's struggles in La Liga, highlighting the team's reliance on his goal-scoring abilities.
Robert Lewandowski, Barcelona's star striker, has experienced a notable decline in form, mirroring the team's recent challenges in La Liga. After a prolific start to the season, Lewandowski's goal-scoring has diminished, impacting Barcelona's offensive capabilities.
In the initial eleven matches, Lewandowski netted 14 goals, demonstrating a shooting accuracy of 52%. However, since the El Clasico on October 26, where he scored twice in a 4-0 victory, he has managed only two goals in subsequent games, with his shooting accuracy dropping to 28.57%.
This downturn has affected Barcelona's overall performance. In the last seven league matches, the team has secured just one victory, a 5-1 win against Mallorca—a match in which Lewandowski was rested. In the other six games, despite his presence, Barcelona failed to clinch wins against teams like Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo, and Atlético Madrid.
Beyond goal-scoring, Lewandowski's involvement in play has waned. Post-El Clasico, he averages over ten ball losses per game, up from 7.9 in the earlier part of the season. Additionally, his success rate in offensive duels has decreased from 43.58% to 26.05%.
Barcelona's attacking output has suffered correspondingly, with the team's average goals per game dropping from 3.37 in the first eleven matches to 1.75 in the subsequent eight. This trend underscores the critical role Lewandowski plays in Barcelona's offensive strategy and the challenges the team faces when his performance declines.
