According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona winger Raphinha has flown 76,000 kilometers in 98 days, equivalent to twice around the Earth.
Since August 23, when Barcelona played Elche away in the first round of La Liga, Raphinha has traveled 76,761 kilometers between his club and the Brazil national team. The shortest equatorial distance around the Earth is 40,075 kilometers. This means that in just over three months, Raphinha has almost completed two full circles, which is a significant toll for a player who always wants to give his all on the field.
Raphinha is currently in Singapore, 10,873 kilometers from Barcelona. He will play a friendly match against Japan this Saturday at 11:45 AM, and then against the host national team on Tuesday at 11 AM. In his last three call-ups to the Brazil squad, he has suffered injuries, which raised an alarm and led to an agreement with Ancelotti regarding his playing time. At the end of September, after playing two matches in Australia and flying 18,350 kilometers, he developed edema in his right thigh muscle.
Raphinha did not return until two weeks later against Betis; he only played an hour against Paris, and a week prior, to play against Galatasaray in Istanbul, he saved 4,468 kilometers of flying. Now, only 5 days after arriving in Singapore, he will again fly with Barcelona to Azerbaijan for the Champions League, still jet-lagged, which means another 7,916 kilometers. After arriving, it will be another 2,170 kilometers to Deportivo La Coruña. Despite this, he has scored 19 goals for Barcelona this season.

One of the most unsung heros of football. His glory always goes to his team mates. Some people are like that. The kind of low key people.who get things done right for others.to shine from their effort. that is raphinha. when he plays, barca gets assurance. his absence creates doubts.
This is not being an heroe, he’s being stupid not knowing how to manage his body at his age

star players have lost crucial penalties in the past, including Platini in 1986. For this know-it-all to chastise these two for missing the penalties is harsh and insensitive to the pain those players now go through for failing at a criticql moment. ...
