11 Surprising Stats From Newcastle 2-2 Southampton

0% - Percentage Of Aerial Duels Won By Fabricio Coloccini

This one again is both surprising and unsurprising. It's unsurprising in the sense that Fabricio Coloccini is little more than six-foot tall, and therefore when he's up against the 6ft 4in Graziano Pelle he is likely to struggle a little. However, it is surprising due to the fact that he only attempted two aerial duels in all - one in a defensive position, and the other in the Southampton box. Considering his lack of presence in the air, you'd have assumed the visitors would have tested him more with some high balls. Looking at his central-defensive teammate's statistics may help shed some light on this mystery though. Chancel Mbemba attempted six defensive duels - winning just two, with one of those he lost being Pelle's opener - showing that Southampton targeted the Premier League newboy, rather than Coloccini.
