The question of the torcida

O time de perguntas e respostas (Ask Me Anything) da BBC Sport published an analysis on a dado curioso da Premier League: which players have scored goals against the greatest number of different teams in the competition's history.

A question asked by supporters shows how the gifts of English football go far beyond artillery and assists. Scoring against many different opponents requires something rare: elite longevity and consistency year after year.

Why this record matters

The Premier League was created in 1992 and today brings together 20 clubs per season. Since then, more than 50 different clubs have participated in the competition, which means that a player needs to play for many years and keep deciding games to accumulate goals against an extensive list of opponents.

This type of statistic tends to highlight well-known names in English football: forwards and midfielders with long careers at the top level, who have faced almost every club that has played in the league since the 1990s.

Where are we going ?

A BBC analysis reinforces a tendency of the major European leagues: records but commented today are longevity. For the Brazilian fan who accompanies Premier League, it is but a reminder that regularidade e não apenas uma temporada brilhante é o que constrói marcas históricas.

Stay tuned to Prancheta Viva: As new official data is released about the uprising, we will update this report.
