How the fuck does Bartra get an assist, that's ridiculous.
Ask whoscored or opta sports.
They consider assist the final pass to a player before the goal.
Do you guys think that an assist has to be a killer pass/throughball/a beautiful cross?
Opta and whoscored count the final pass before the goal as an assist (unless the pass was deflected). Penalties won, rebounds are not counted which is the best definition IMO. transfermarkt.de and fantasy football games do count them.
