Antoine Griezmann is the only player of FC Barcelona who has managed to score in the four competitions disputed: League, Champions, Super Cup and Cup

Antoine Griezmann converted this Wednesday in the footballer that avoided the ridiculous of the FC Barcelona against the Ibiza, team of Second Division B, in dieciseisavos of final of the Glass of Rey. The Balearic group advanced in the marker in the first time and during a lot of minutes gave the feeling that would consummate a historical disaster against a group two inferior categories, but the French avoided it.

And it did it with two goals saviours of authentic leading centre: first, desmarcó by the centre to receive a pass measured of Frenkie of Jong and define with a shot adjusted to the stick; in the last minute of the party, threw a new desmarque to receive the balloon of Jordi Alba and consummate the traced back with a shot crossed that reflotó again his facet of 'cazagoles'. It appeared when the team more needed him.

With the two goals annotated against the Balearic group, Griezmann already carries a total of 11 with the FC Barcelona in the present season. Besides, curiously, it is the only footballer of the team culé that has achieved to mark in all the competitions: it carries 7 goals in LaLiga, one in Champions League, another in the Supercopa of Spain and the two of Glass of Rey.

In the present course, only Leo Messi will be able to equalise him in these data, since the Argentinian is, together with the French, the only player of the staff that could annotate in the Supercopa of Spain. In the general table of goleadores, nevertheless, Griezmann keeps on being the third maximum goleador by behind Luis Suárez (14 goals) and of the own Messi (17).

It is necessary to take into account, of face to the next months, that Luis Suárez is lesionado and that is not at all sure that the FC Barcelona can bring to a goleador contrasted in this market of winter. Thus, the responsibility goleadora of Griesmann will increase and, in fact, the Frenchman showed in Balearic earths that maybe was a good alternative to play like man more advanced.

In fact, bet by Griezmann like leading centre would suppose to separate it of the left band, where does not feel at all comfortable, and give him more options to go in in contact with the balloon. Although his best performance always has been with a '9' of reference by in front, the 'principito' is a versatile and intelligent player that would be able to understand well the position.
