The art of the pipe: the players who have done it the most this season

Few actions are more beautiful to see on a pitch than a pipe. The advantage generated and the consequent humiliation to the rival accompanied by the “Oh” from the stands, makes this dribble one of the most sought after resources by the most skilled players with the ball.

There are many players who come to mind when thinking of a spout, especially Ronaldinho, considered one of the “kings of the pipe”, and it is interesting – now that we have reached the equator of the vast majority of competitions – to see who are the tightrope walkers who have made the most pipes so far this season.

As expected, according to the data collected by the portal FBREF, the player who has made the most pipes of the five major leagues is Neymar with a total of 12, being the only one that exceeds ten. The Brazilian has one of his great virtues in his ability to overflow and technique with the ball and for years he has been one of the most lavish in this type of dribbling.

It is remarkable that In the top 10 players with the most spouts there are none from LaLiga, not even Leo messi, which has led this statistic in previous years. Specifically, no representative of the national championship exceeds five pipes this season, being Bryan Gil (Eibar), Raúl Guti (Elche), Javier Ontiveros (Huesca) and José Luis Morales (Levante), the only ones who have done five. A new test that shows the absence of “cracks” in LaLiga in recent seasons after the departure of players like Cristiano and Neymar.

The Premier League is the true dominator in this statistic having a total of five representatives in the top 10, which is actually a top 13 since there are several players tied with six. Serie A and the Bundesliga draw with three names and Ligue 1 is left with only two but with the honor that Neymar leads the table. This is the top 10 players with the most spouts in the 20-21 season in the five major leagues.
