Martin Braithwaite is standing out in the 2025 Brasileirão Série A for a very specific reason: his coolness from the penalty spot.
According to Opta data, the Grêmio striker leads the championship in converted penalties, with 4 goals — tied with Reinaldo, Mirassol's left-back.
But there's a detail that puts him ahead: Braithwaite is the only one among the kickers with more than two attempts who hasn't missed any. 100% effectiveness.
Of the 6 goals he has scored so far, 4 have come from penalty kicks. That is, two-thirds of his goals have come from set pieces.
Grêmio is grateful — and opposing goalkeepers continue to try to decipher the specialist.
