Study of successful soccer teams on fifa world cup 2010

Özet

\r\n A notational analysis provides opportunities to analyze the intrinsic characteristics of the teams in order to improve the quality of the training and quality of the opponent's observation. The main objective of this study was to analyze the performance parameters and characterize the most successful teams on FIFA World Cup 2010, in order to describe the most relevant parameters that can improve the efficacy of the teams. Analyzes of variance among groups of teams were made in order to characterize the performance parameters and find differences that can explain the efficacy of the teams on competition. Regarding to results of this study is possible to verify that the most successful teams score more goals per game, existing significant differences between them (F(3;28) = 6.591; p-value = .002). Specifically the differences were found among teams that played 7 and 3 matches throughout competition (p-value = .006). With regard to the ways of how the goals were scored, is possible verify that most successful teams scored more goals through open play, verifying statistical differences among groups (F(3;28) = 3.059; p-value = .044). Analyzing medium passes, is possible verify that most successful teams have most frequency of these passes than other teams, differing statistically (F(3;28) = 3.992; p-value = .017). Specifically the differences were found among teams that played 7 and 3 matches throughout competition (p-value = .046). The results demonstrate that most successful teams confirm some parameters that characterize the efficacy of the teams in line with the literature. Parameters as passes completed, areas of the shots made, attacking zones or zones of goals suffered are indicators that characterize the efficacy of the most successful teams on FIFA World Cup 2010.\r\n
