Ronaldinho: Assists and goals

Sergi Nogueras


Ronaldinho maybe widely known as a creator of goals and skilful playmaker, but this season the Brazilian superstar has showed how effective he can be by scoring a personal record of 19 goals this term.


One of the FC Barcelona player's most famed characteristics has always been his ability to creat chances for his team-mates. With his vision and incredible technique that allows him to place the ball wherever he wants and to often produce what can appear impossible. As well as all that, however, Ronaldinho has maintained a record of a goal every two games during his time at Camp Nou. With his strike in Vicente Calderón last weekend he took his tally for this term up to 19, to add to the two he scored in the Champions League and one in the FIFA Club World Cup.

Unique fashion

A total of 12 have been from a set piece as the number ten has shown that he is one of the best free-kick takers in the world by scoring five times with a direct shot and he has also proved deadly from 12 yards, as his eight penalties proves. Ronaldinho has failed to score from the spot on just one occasion this term, against Sevilla in the Sánchez Pizjuán. He has also scored four goals with his head, two with his right foot and one with his left.

A complete record

In his first season with Barça, the former Gremio and PSG ace netted 14, after strong second half to the campaign. In his second year he only managed to hit nine, but last term he recovered his form to net an incredible 17 goals for the team. This season, after scoring against Atlético de Madrid on Sunday, he has taken his account to 19 and will continue to battle for the Pichichi award until the very end.

In total
