SEVILLE, SPAIN - JANUARY 12: Marco Asensio of Real Madrid CF celebrates after scoring the first goal of Real Madrid CF with his coach Zinedine Zidane during the Copa del Rey Round of 16 Second Leg match between Sevilla FC vs Real Madrid CF at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium on January 12, 2017 in Seville, Spain.

In the earlier seasons, Real Madrid's dependence on the trio of Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema was immense. The trio's contribution is still high but with the youngsters emerging in the squad and sharing the workload, the pressure on the front three has reduced which is reflecting on the results. BBC's goal ratio with the club's total goals scored is 42.17% and is a staggering 20% less when compared to the trio of Messi, Suarez and Neymar.

The scoring ability of Madrid's squad has enabled Zidane to cope with long-term injuries to Gareth Bale and Casemiro this season. 12 Real Madrid players have scored 4 goals or more this season which is a testament to their brilliant run. From the first team squad, Fabio Coentrao remains the only outfield player to not have scored for Real in the 2016-17 season.
