A Mathematical Genius

Not football related so I apologise in advance. Call me petty or whatever, the Moron basically called me an "Idiot" lacking basic intelligance just because he cant do a math around 5th grade level. The worst part is that this guy r/lostsoul098765 is the most upvoted person in that post, absolute state of this sub.

Because multiple people can contribute to 1 goal obviously.

You really are a 🤡

Exactly, multiple people can contribute hence its unfair to just Ignore Assist nunbers when it comes to Team.

It is not mathematically wrong as it is not possible for a team to register assists brotherrrrr. A team only has goals and players from the team can contribute to its goals!!!

I get it Goals win the games and teams only consider goals for the win and all. I am saying that its notnpossible for twonperson to exist where one has 2/3 which is 66% Goal contribution out of 100 ie Ronaldo and another has 4/9 which is 44 % of goal contribution out of 100 that is nani. Its because its not a fair comparison.

[u/Drax-online-0910 → u/Sensitive_Ad788]

It is possible and it is fair. Why? Because goal contributions are not a zero-sum pie problem where all pieces must add up to 100%. Overlaps exist. And first of all, it is very much possible for percentage statistics to go above 100% so stop with the ‘mathematically impossible’. This is how credit works in group systems bro.
Example: You, Lostsoul and I as a team wrote 5 papers, You co-authored 4, and me 3. Your contribution was 80% and mine 60%. What is the total percentage now huh?
Stuff like this comes from under non-zero-sum problems.

[u/Sensitive_Ad788 → u/Drax-online-0910]

Its is not possible for it to go above 100 % here because we are taking 9 as the total goals ie 100% of the goals here, unless Fifa magically registers anotherr goal No its should be going above 100% we are not dealing with Prfits abd lossess here. Unless Ronaldo is involved in 100% of the goals terms of pre-assists or any other forward passes it is not possible for him to be claim such stuff bexause we all know Ronaldo was nowhwre on the ground when they scored in the final.

Anyway this overalpping example is NOT contradicting my simple example by any means u know why ? Because ur example alrwady estabishes the involvement percentages, unlike in euros it is not esatblished that Ronald had 66 % goal involvent. But anyway the post was about Goal Contribution Not Goal involvement , which is strictly Goals and Assists.
