Soccer Player

跟踪和分析足球运动员表现的应用程序

Soccer is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. It is played by 250 million players in over 200 countries and dependencies, making it the world's most popular sport. The most exciting moment watching a match is when a player scores a goal into the net or the player dribbles past 5 or 6 defenders. Thus most kids want to play striker or winger when they start in the early age, and quite often parents shouting go go go or shoot on the sideline no matter whether the kid is in good position to shoot or there is another teammate in a better position to finish.

However Soccer is a team sport. There are only 3 forwards (striker and wingers) on the field in most popular 4-3-3 formation played in the world today. There are 8 other players play midfielder, defense, and goalie. Each player on the fields has his or her own critical jobs to do in order to win the match, or not lose it when face a much stronger team let’s say Barcelona or Real Madrid. Actually there are so many super stars like Xavi who is remembered as the master to distribute the ball and control the rhythm of the match, Maldini who is the one of the best left back and central defender for A.C. Milan and Italy national team, and Buffon the best goalkeeper of all time who made so many fantastic saves.

So as a passionate soccer dad or soccer mom, it is important to know which position is the best fit to the talent and personality of your kid, what the criteria are to evaluate the performance of him or her. For example, if your kid plays central defender, the most important contribution to the team probably is how many clears and blocks he/she made in the box. For a holding midfielder, it is important to know how many and the accuracy of the forward, square, and backward passes in order to control the rhythm. It is helpful to see the zones/areas on the field where your kid makes the runs and touches the ball.
