    How did Neymar fare in his first LaLiga season?
    • August 29, 2022 • 2 years ago

    In July 2013, Barcelona completed one of their most famous transfers by signing Neymar Jr. The then 22-year-old Brazilian was expected to be one of the leaders of the club's attacks. By the way, it is easy to find LaLiga results today with "Barcelona" and its opponents on the sports statistics website. The team' matches in all tournaments are covered here.
    So, the first season for Neymar in Spain was the 2013/2014 campaign, which turned out to be fairly successful for the Catalans. The club won the Spanish Super Cup, but it was his unique trophy at the end of the season. Neymar himself was also just adapting to LaLiga. In his debut campaign he had only nine goals in 26 games in the Primera.

    By the way, today you can easily find the results of LaLiga matches on the sports statistics website. Here all confrontations are covered. In general, the debut season in Spain was controversial for Neymar. Sometimes he gave brilliant performances, but it was obvious that the Brazilian has not yet adapted perfectly to the team. 
    This was especially noticeable in comparison with the next campaign of 2014/2015. There, the Brazilian scored 22 goals in the LaLiga and another 17 goals in other competitions. It is not surprising that at the end of 2015 Neymar was in the final three-man Ballon d’Or shortlist. But the debut season showed that the player needs to keep working. Fortunately, he managed to do so, and later the Brazilian confirmed his status as one of the most talented players on the planet.

    Why didn't the Brazilian play in Spain from the start?

    At home, Neymar was an absolute star whereas in Spain, he had some time to adapt to the realities of the local championship. By the way, all the football matches today from the world of this competition are covered on the site of sports statistics. 
    When it comes to the factors that made Neymar not be able to demonstrate all his strengths on the spot, it is impossible to pass by:

    1. The style of play of the teams. It is more rigid and closed than in Brazil. Therefore, Neymar did not have much time to make decisions.
    2. Lack of understanding with partners. During the 2013/2014 campaign, Neymar was just getting into the team. Therefore, there was no such "chemistry" with Lionel Messi, Xavi, Andres Iniesta and other players.
    3. More serious physical exertion. A footballer had to get proper fitness. This also took time.

    In general, the debut season in La Liga was a successive one for the Brazilian. He showed that he has a great talent, and during the next campaign he showed all his strengths on the field and helped the Catalans to win the treble.
    Fans can follow their football matches on the sports statistics website today. Here all confrontations are covered, so real fans will not miss a single match.
