According to statistics collected by the artificial intelligence company Olocip, both the Argentine (sixth on the blacklist of the worst finishers) and the Portuguese (18th) are among the 20 players who most penalized their teams when scoring in the games of the respective championships.
In the case of the Manchester United player, the statistics (14 goals and three assists in 23 games) are well above those achieved by PSG’s number 30 (6 goals and 5 assists in 17 games).
Olocip defines completion as “the difference between the probability of the shot ending in a goal and the result of the shot, in such a way that its accumulated value determines the number of goals that were scored (if positive) or lost (if negative) ) in relation to the number of goals expected to have been scored’.
Taking into account these parameters (goals in the respective leagues), Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo’s statistics this season would be reduced to one goal in 12 Ligue 1 games, in the case of the Argentine star, and 8 goals in 18 games in the Premier League. League for CR7.
Leo Messi’s -3.05 value means that the Argentine should have scored 3 more goals this season. The case of Cristiano Ronaldo is even more surprising. Olocip’s value of -2.42 means that the Portuguese should have scored two more goals.
A curiosity: the list of the worst finishers is headed by Gaetan Laborde, French forward from Rennes (Ligue 1), with -4.67.
