This makes it possible to analyse crucial aspects such as movement without the ball and thus optimal movements, game choices, and the contribution to the technical and physical efficiency of the team, which allow for an objective and qualitative evaluation of the performance. All matches played in Serie A were considered for the final calculation.

In the decisive moments of the season, the Portuguese forward has been fundamental with 11 goals, 10 assists and top-level plays," he added. (ANI)
