He is ambidextrous since he can remember; when he was little and played in the street he remembers himself like this
The Frenchman confessed to us that he feels better starting from that side and driving inwards
Ousmane smiles. Ousmane gets angry. Ousmane protests. He is more plugged in than ever and his emotions on the pitch attest to this. The one from Évreaux (we will no longer put the one from Vernon, since he feels from this other city where he grew up, near Paris) ‘dances’ on the pitch to the sound of what Xavi marks. Never before has he been so happy wearing the colors of FC Barcelona.
The Terrassa coach is managing to uncover a jar of essences that he had barely been able to open by the dropper in his first four years in Barcelona. With that ‘poster’ of an anarchic footballer, Ousmane defends and presses with sense. He is involved with the game. Before perhaps we had the feeling that it was not going with him. We see him perform on both wings of the Barça attack. He handles both legs equally well and that makes him unpredictable. “I like to play on both sides, but I prefer on the right. We have to work for the team and I think we’re good. With Raphinha a lot has changed, with Lewandowski there is a very good connection. It is true that I can shoot with both legs, but I prefer to go in with the left foot inwards”.
AMBIDEXTROUS CRADLE
Very few players on the soccer planet are capable of mastering the left and right foot with the same precision. Where does this come from? Are you born with it? “(Laughs) I don’t know… I write with the left, but I prefer to drive with the left and shoot with the right. But I can use both. As a child he already kicked with both legs. In the street, when I started, I already remember using both legs. I have also worked hard for a long time for this & rdquor ;.
The French winger already adds 2022-13 assists throughout this. But above all it is what it generates. Against Sevilla, he masterfully leads the counterattack that ends in Lewandowski’s first. When Barça was suffering the most. In the race he is unstoppable and on top of that now he chooses well more and more frequently. Perhaps it is one of the aspects that was most blamed on him, that of making bad decisions in the final meters, in the decisive phase of the game. Between Xavi and the environment it is being achieved and the ceiling will only be marked by him.
