Answer

Player B. Olivier Giroud (LOSC Lille), Dribbler B (percentile 77), against Emersonn (Toulouse), X (percentile 11). Emersonn has more dribbles attempted per 90, but Olivier Giroud wins more of their dribbles and loses fewer dribbles.

Context

Emersonn attempts 2.1 dribbles per 90 compared to Olivier Giroud's 0.3. Despite that lower volume, Olivier Giroud succeeds on 60% of take-ons and loses only 0.11 dribbles per 90. Raw attempts mislead when success rates are low.
