“Johan Mojica, the best left back in Europe”was the headline with which the Spanish firm Olocip, focused on the relationship between sport and Artificial Intelligence, opened its latest article in this week’s LaLiga print magazine.
According to what is read in the Olocip report, the Colombian is the one with the best performance and impact in the big leagues in Europe because “he has a cumulative value of 8.33%, which means that he has generated more than eight expected goals for his team”
The side of the Colombian National Team, in the statistics of the firm, which was promoted by the former Spanish soccer player Esteban Granero, surpasses in the old continent men like the Spanish Alex Moreno, from Real Betis, the Portuguese Joao Cancelo, from Manchester City, Frenchman Theo Hernández, from Milan, and Spaniard Jordi Alba, from Barcelona.
For the firm in question, “Mojica has grown a lot in recent weeks, being the fittest player in the last month and Elche’s best player of the entire season”.
“For the IA, it is the best season of his career, taking into account his data since 2016. In addition, thanks to his actions, he generates a goal every 346 minutes; he has scored two goals and has provided five assists so far this season “you finish reading in the note.

Is Mojica the best winger in Europe?
In the digital age, where football analysis is being dominated by statistics, it might feel strange to challenge the numbers. Nevertheless, do not forget that football is not an exact science.
Johan Mojica has had a great performance at Elche, a team that has fulfilled its mission of staying out of the relegation places in the first division of Spanish football. The data listed by Olocip is true. What would have to be seen is whether it is conclusive to compare the performance data of the Colombian winger in his club with those of, for example, other players who play in international tournaments (competitions in which the level is higher on paper).
Thus, taking into account those qualities that are not seen in Artificial Intelligence reports, a more reliable vision could be given. Of course: without detracting from Mojica.
