Attack/Defence Awareness Card: Attack MindedINFO:Bafétimbi Gomis is a French striker, best known for his time at Lyon but with a long and prolific career in France, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. He scored over 100 goals in Ligue 1 and earned 12 caps for France. He's famous for his goal celebrations where he pretends to be a panther, a tribute to Salif Keita with whom he shares the nickname of "Black Panther". With Al-Hilal, he's considered one of the best foreign players in the history of the club, scoring 116 goals in just 154 games and winning the Asian Champions League in 2019 and 2021, becoming the top scorer of the 2019 edition. He's a physically strong player with a good sense for goal, scoring at a strong rate throughout his career. During this part of his career he wasn't as fast or dynamic as before, but his physicality was a real problem for the weaker Turkish and Saudi defenders. He's not a very technical player and often looks awkward with the ball, but he's a reliable scoring threat: he doesn't score pretty goals but generally if you can get the ball to him in the box then he'll score. He's a good header of the ball and a reliable penalty taker, he scored 26 out of 30 for Al-Hilal.
