Five key stats following Barcelona 4-0 Betis
Barcelona put in a dominant performance against Real Betis on Saturday, securing a comfortable 4-0 victory. The result saw them consolidate their position at the top of the league table, but here are five other milestones Barça achieved on the night.
Last night’s game was the 24th clean sheet for Barcelona in a single La Liga season, which is a record they share with Atletico Madrid in 2015/16 and Barcelona themselves in 1986/87. What’s more impressive is that they achieved this feat in just 32 games this season, which is fewer than the other two teams.
Lamine Yamal, meanwhile, became the youngest player to make his debut for Barcelona and the fifth youngest in the history of La Liga. Luka Romero holds the title for being the youngest player in La Liga, making his debut aged 15 years and 219 days.
Raphinha became the fifth LaLiga player to reach double figures for both goals and assists this season in all competitions. The Brazilian winger has scored 10 goals and provided 11 assists this season, joining the likes of Vinícius Jr, Rodrygo, Samuel Chukwueze, and Antoine Griezmann.
Raphinha also made it to the list of players with the most assists in their first season at Barcelona in all competitions. The Brazilian winger has provided 11 assists so far, which is the same number achieved by Neymar Jr in 2013/14. Luis Suarez holds the top spot on this list, having provided an incredible 21 assists in his first season for Barcelona in 2014/15.
Finally, Barcelona’s star man Robert Lewandowski proved his worth once again against Real Betis. The Polish striker scored his 19th goal of the season in LaLiga, which is the most by a player in his first campaign for Barcelona since Samuel Eto’o in 2004/05.
