"FC Barcelona did not just end the year as La Liga leaders; they did so with 169 goals scored in 60 official matches. It is a number that immediately places this team in rare company and links it directly to the most glorious attacking chapters in the club's history. As such, only four Barcelona sides have ever surpassed that total in a calendar year,"
"This version of Barcelona has made their attack the heart of its competitive identity. Yet there is one key difference compared to those Messi-led sides - the goals are no longer concentrated in one unstoppable figure. This Barça scores as a collective. Every first-team player has found the net in 2025, with the sole exception of Marc Bernal, who spent much of the year sidelined with a serious knee injury."
Barcelona ended the year as La Liga leaders with 169 goals in 60 official matches. Only four Barcelona sides surpassed that total: 180 goals in 2015, 175 in 2012, 174 in 2016, and 170 in 2011. This Barcelona makes attack its competitive identity while distributing goals across the squad instead of relying on a single superstar. Every first-team player scored in 2025 except Marc Bernal, sidelined by a serious knee injury. Ferran Torres and Robert Lewandowski lead with 27 goals, followed by Raphinha (24), Lamine Yamal (21), Fermin Lopez (14) and Dani Olmo (11). The team scores via possession, transitions, high pressing, patient build-up and adventurous fullbacks. The Villarreal win reflected renewed hunger under Hansi Flick.
