Partial score influences on soccer performance

What is it about?

Game analysis has been deeply investigated on several factors impacting on the final score but not many authors described the partial score modifications to take into account in elite soccer. Physical and technical activities need to be analysed knowing that each game has its "individual analysis". The paper shows how, within different time window considered, each Key Performance Indicator is modified.

Why is it important?

Our findings add something to the stakeholders' knowledge, stimulating them on a deeper study of the performance model in soccer, in its dynamic and chaotic nature. Looking even at the level where each S&C or PA works, the KPIs impact might be different: in a medium level league (our case) the high intensity running seems to have a great relevance (more than the technical - tactical organization), but further investigation needed to demonstrate it in a elite contest.
