What is it about?
We analysed the set-piece goals (throw-in, corner, free kick and penalty) on competition results in the Turkey Super League over five seasons (2006-2011) based on realization time (0-15, 16-30, 31-45, 46-60, 61-75 and 76-90), the status of being a home or away team, the kick area of the goals (12 penalty areas, 4 out of penalty areas) and striking technique (inside kick, inner side of instep kick, instep kick, outside kick, header and special skill).

Why is it important?
Based on our data, goals scored from set pieces have a remarkable effect on competition results; therefore, the importance of time interval, goal type, areas and kicking type of set-piece goals have been emphasized for coaches.
Perspectives
Writing this article was a great journey for me and with its main author I still have long-standing collaboration and friendship. It was my first published article and I was quite curious during data analysis and writing.
