EdF: the astonishing statistics of Benjamin Pavard

Author of a double header against Scotland, Benjamin Pavard increased his total of goals in Blue to 5 units. Which made social networks happy. Because Benjamin Pavard’s offensive statistics with the France team are enough to make some attackers blush. For example, with 5 goals, he does as well as Wissam Ben Yedder (3 goals) and Anthony Martial (2 goals) combined. The two men have 19 and 30 caps respectively…

Another unflattering comparison, Benjamin Pavard (52 caps) has scored more goals for the French team than Ousmane Dembélé (40 caps) for the French team, but not only that. The PSG winger has yet to score this season, in 9 appearances for Paris Saint-Germain. Which obviously unleashed X last night, as you can see in the video above. The Inter Milan defender is also the first defender to score twice since Mamadou Sakho in November 2013 against Ukraine, and the first player to score twice with a header since a certain Zinedine Zidane.
