In her quest to become a “complete” player, Aitana Bonmatí wants to know everything. As she prepares for a fourth Champions League final, it’s working.
Aitana Bonmatí always asks the same question. Every game Barcelona Femení plays generates a flood of performance data. The team’s fitness coaches know how far each player ran, how fast, how long. There is so much information, in fact, that they need two days to download it and tabulate it and parse it. Only then is it passed back to the squad.
Not every player pays much heed to that sort of feedback.
