King of the penalty area! Vinicius leads La Liga with 118 touches in the penalty area this season

The war in La Liga continues to burn this season, and the performance of various offensive players in the opponent's penalty area has become an important indicator of the team's offensive power. According to the latest statistics from Squawka, Real Madrid's Vinicius topped the list with 118 touches in the penalty area, and his teammate Mbappe ranked second with 95 times, forming a strong dominance of Real Madrid's twin stars.

Vinicius' 118 touches in the penalty area not only far exceeds other competitors, but also shows his strong breakthrough ability.

In Real Madrid's match against Villarreal, Vinicius even set a personal record of 108 touches of the ball and 17 touches of the ball in the opponent's penalty area.

Mbappe (95 times) and Yamal (74 times) ranked second and third, forming the first echelon of La Liga players who touch the ball in the penalty area. The performance of Barcelona youngster Yamal is also worthy of attention. As the core of Barcelona's offense, he averaged 12.6 touches in the penalty area per game, showing maturity and threat beyond his age.

There is fierce competition in the middle of the list, with Rashford (72 times), Nicolas Pepe (66 times) and Hernandez (66 times) having almost the same data. These players are all offensive weapons for their respective teams. Frequent touches in the penalty area create more opportunities for them to score and assist.

Atletico Madrid's Giuliano Simeone (63 times), Real Sociedad's Oyarzabal (62 times), Budimir (54 times) and Barenechea (53 times) are also among the top ten on the list, showing the diverse distribution of offensive firepower among La Liga teams.
