“Those who don’t follow women’s football might think it’s a clásico; those that do, know it’s not.” is how eternal Barça Femení captain Vicky Losada described the so-called rivalry between her team and Real Madrid Femenino in 2021.
Football is a game of numbers. Players wearing numbers, number of goals scored (or not scored), number of goals conceded (or not conceded), number of players on the pitch, number of defenders in a formation, to name a few. And no Pythagorean theorem, rather components of statistics and data. If we were to get into detail of people’s jobs in the football industry using numbers that would not limit but include scouts and analysts, coaching staff and management, physiotherapists and dietitians. In the case of FC Barcelona Femeni, who have rushed like a bull in a china shop this season with five victories in five matches played, numbers are meant to be built up and then break down records.
