The second goal in yesterday’s victorious match between Girona and Alaves became the anniversary goal, the 10th in La Liga for the Ukrainian Artem Dovbik. This allowed him to become one of the most successful rookie scorers in the Spanish championship, Opta notes.
The best results in this genre were shown by Robert Lewandowski last season and Jude Bellingham this season. To reach the mark of 10 goals scored, both needed 10 matches. Cristiano Ronaldo did this in 13 games, Zlatan Ibrahimovic in 12. But, for example, Lionel Messi was able to reach this milestone only after 30 games for Barcelona. However, at the beginning of his career, the great Argentinean was not yet considered a scorer.
As a result, Dovbik ranks 9th in the table of fast-firing newcomers in the 21st century…
