100 goals in Liga 2010
Marc Guillén
Barça under Guardiola have been scoring more and more goals each year. In 2010 they have already scored 100 league goals, while 2009 produced 93.
After the clásico, Xavi Hernàndez claimed his side is playing even better this year. The
goalscoring statistics suggest he is right.
Nearly 3 goals a game
Looking
at calendar years rather than seasons, Barça have already hit their century in 2010. In what amount
to 36 league matches, that means an average of 2.77 goals a game. Just counting goals this season,
they have an average of 2.92 goals, especially thanks to some big wins in recent outings.
Only 23 goals against
While hitting 100 goals, the side has only let in 23. So, it’s not just in attacks that
Guardiola’s side is impressing. They’ve only conceded 0.63 goals a game in 2010 league
matches.
93 goals in 2009
Guardiola’s first full year at the club produced 6 titles, including the league
championship, and they made good headway towards the second. But they didn’t score as many
goals as they have this year. In 2009, the Blaugrana managed 93 goals in 36 games, which was
nevertheless one mighty haul.
