Kondogbia matches best ball recovery stat for 2019/20

Since Valencia CF returned to action following the unscheduled break in the competition, midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia has featured in every game for which he has been available -bar the derby against Levante, when he was serving a suspension.
 

In the game against Real Valladolid earlier this week, Kondogbia put in an assured display in both defence and attack. OPTA stats show that it is the LaLiga encounter in which he made his joint most recoveries of possession this season, taking the ball back for Valencia CF on 14 occasions. The statistic matches that from the meeting with Getafe CF at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez earlier this term.
 

Kondogbia was the player with the most recoveries, joint most shots (3) and second most clearances (2). Only Gonçalo Guedes made more successful dribbles (4).

The scorer of the most recent goal for Valencia CF at Butarque, he returns to Leganés in a strong moment of form.

Valencia CF – Real Valladolid: 14

Getafe CF – Valencia CF: 14

Deportivo Alavés – Valencia CF: 13

Valencia CF – Atletico Madrid: 12

Valencia CF – FC Barcelona: 11
