Robert Lewandowski Struggles in La Liga, Falls Behind in Top Scorer Race

Robert Lewandowski, despite not having the best season, is still La Liga’s top scorer. He scored four goals in the last two league games, but the 35th game against Real Sociedad was not very successful for him. It is true that he played a big part in one of the goal scoring activities, but he did not have the opportunity to beat the rival goalkeeper himself. As a result, his position in the classification of La Liga scorers became more complicated.

Robert Lewandowski has had his ups and downs this season, but he remains one of the best strikers in La Liga. Before Monday’s match of the 35th round with Real Sociedad, he had scored 17 goals, which put him just below the podium in the classification of the league’s scorers.

The Polish representative was ahead of Girona’s Artem Dowbyk (20 goals), Villarreal’s Alexander Sorloth (19) and Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham (18). Of those three, only Sorloth increased his achievements in the 35th round, beating the Sevilla goalkeeper twice (3-2) and getting ahead of Lewandowski. He wanted to respond to Norway and, above all, get closer to the leader of the ranking.

The 35-year-old did not have an easy life against the Real Sociedad defenders. Just before the break, he made a good pass to Ilkay Guendogan, who assisted Lamine Yamal’s goal. But his players could not repay the Pole with equally good performances.

Lewandowski left the field in the 76th minute (when the score was 1-0 for Barcelona). During this time, he fired one shot, but did not increase his aim. As a result, he is still in fourth place in the rating of the scorers of the Spanish league and stopped his good streak – in the last fights with Valencia (4: 2) and Girona (2: 4), scored a total of four goals.

It might have looked different if the Pole had stayed on the field until the end of the game. In extra time, Barcelona received a penalty kick, which Raphinha converted and made the score 2-0. The Brazilian benefited from the fact that Lewandowski, the regular penalty taker, was not on the pitch. In addition, he was useless in this element, and this season he used all five.

Scores ranking after the 35th round of La Liga

  • 1. Artem Dovbyk (Girona) – 20 goals
  • 2. Alasdair Sorloth (Villarreal) – 19
  • 3. Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid) – 18
  • 4. Robert Lewandowski (FC Barcelona) – 17
  • 5. Ante Budimir (Osasuna) – 16
  • 6. Youssef En-Nesyri (Sevilla), Borja Mayoral (Getafe) –
  • 8. Gorka Guruzeta (Athletic Bilbao), Alvaro Morata (Atletico Madrid) – 14
  • 10. Hugo Duro (Valencia), Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid), Vinicius Jr (Real Madrid) – 13

There are still three rounds left until the end of the La Liga season. The 36th series of games will be held on May 14-16. In that, FC Barcelona will face the worst team in the league, Almeria (May 16), so Robert Lewandowski will have a very good chance to increase his goal tally. And there is not much time left to defeat competitors.
