Below the blocking percentage: Eran Zehavi's selfishness in the opening of the World Cup qualifiers

Eran Zehavi will further improve his accuracy (watch his 13 kicks from the start of the campaign), but the numbers prove that there is no other team in Europe where a player leaves his friends with so few crumbs.

The reason for the pessimism: The players around him are starting to show frustration.

The reason for the optimism: on Wednesday he meets Moldova

All Eran Zehavi's kicks in the first two rounds of the World Cup qualifiers (Sport 1)

Eran Zehavi was the focus of public criticism last night (Sunday) after the Israeli team's 1: 1 against Scotland and not in vain.

This is not how the Israeli national team striker wanted to open the 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign: two games, one point and 0 in his goal column.

How good that the next rival is Moldova.



Zehavi started the game blitz with a half-number attempt against Denmark and was stopped by Caspar Schmeichel, but has not found the frame since.

According to official figures, he kicked 13 times in both games against Denmark and Scotland and 9 of his kicks did not reach the goal at all, but were stopped by the defensive players.

Only Memphis Depay, Cristiano Ronaldo and Steven Jovtic kicked more goals than Golden in the two opening rounds of the World Cup qualifiers, but they left more of it for both others and scored: Memphis two goals and Jovtic three.

It should also be noted that the Montenegrin has faced weak rivals like Latvia and Gibraltar, with his numbers dropping later on.



Memphis tried 17 times out of the Netherlands' 54 (31 percent) Jubicic threatened 16 times out of Montenegro's 51 (31 percent) and Ronaldo kicked 14 times out of Portugal's 38 (36 percent).

Zehavi threatened 13 times out of 28 kicks by Israel and this is the highest number in Europe - 46 percent

.

In fact, no player in the first two World Cup qualifiers has left his teammates with so few crumbs.

  • Memphis Depay (Netherlands) 17

Against Scotland he seemed to be really forcing himself on Israel's offensive game.

Yesterday it seemed that Zahavi was already developing impatience and really imposing himself on Israel's offensive game.

Some of his attempts off the field were too pretentious and for the first time it could be seen that some of the team players are angry that he prefers to kick rather than hand over to them.

By the way, Zehavi was criticized in the Netherlands at the start of the season for exactly this reason: allegations of his overly selfish game.



Against Moldova on Wednesday, Zahavi will threaten several more times and maybe this time the ball will already come in.

After the highest loss in its history, 8: 0 to Denmark yesterday, Roberto Bourdain's team is broken and shattered and Israel will have to take advantage of this to achieve a first victory.

Zahavi will also need to take advantage of this to improve the percentage of accuracy, the goal column and maybe even the cooks.
