Interpersonal dynamics in 2-vs-1 contexts of football: the effects of field location and player roles
2019
This study analyzed the spatial-temporal interactions that sustained 2-vs-1 contexts in football at different field locations near the goal. Fifteen male players (under 15 years, age 13.2 ± 1.03 years, years of practice 4.2 ± 1.10 years), 5 defenders, 7 midfielders, and 3 attackers, participated in the study. Each participant performed a game to simulate a 2-vs-1 sub-phase as a ball carrier, second attacker, and defender at three different field locations, resulting in a total number of 142 trials. The movements of participants in each trial were recorded and digitized with TACTO software. Values of interpersonal distance between the ball carrier and defender and interpersonal angles betwee…
External Load Variables Affect Recovery Markers up to 72 h After Semiprofessional Football Matches.
2019
Background: Player tracking devices are commonly used to monitor external load from training and matches in team sports. Yet, how the derived external load variables relate to fatigue and recovery post-training or post-match is scarcely researched. The objective was, therefore, to investigate how external load variables affect recovery markers up to 72 h post-match. Methods: Semiprofessional players from six teams wore tracking devices during three experimental football matches. External load variables including individual playing duration, total distance, PlayerLoad™, high-intensity running, and high-intensity events were derived from the tracking devices, and blood samples and performance…
Intervención psicológica a distancia con un futbolista profesional: estudio de caso
2019
El objetivo del presente trabajo es estudiar las diferencias pre y post intervención psicológica online durante 9 meses en un joven jugador de fútbol profesional. Se parte de la demanda del deportista para mejorar su fortaleza mental y conseguir la titularidad en el equipo, ya que después de 2 meses de temporada, era suplente y se sentía "débil psicológicamente" para afrontarlo. Para ello, se evaluó al jugador con el CPRD, autorregistros y observaciones de partidos. La intervención se realizó por medio de videoconferencias, mensajería instantánea y correo electrónico. Principalmente, se aplicó técnicas cognitivo-conductuales, como la relajación, las autoinstrucciones, el planteamiento de cr…
A Preliminary Analysis of the Importance of Distance, Angle, and Insight When Soccer Referees Make Penalty Decisions
2021
Soccer referees move freely on the pitch to place themselves in the best location for making decisions. While Football Association UK (FA) highlights that a referee should never be more than 20 m away from the playing situation, previous studies have been inconsistent in indicating appropriate distance to a situation for increasing the likelihood of a correct decision. Further, appropriate angle and insight are also likely to influence the correctness of referees' decisions. The aim of this study was to provide an initial investigation of elite referees' positioning in the field (distance, angle, and insight) when making correct and erroneous decisions in potential penalty situations. An ex…
