28 Ene How to Understand the Game Through Space: A New Model to Analyze Offensive and Defensive Efficiency in Football

Posted at 13:59h in Research

At LaLiga, through the Football Intelligence & Performance Area, we have developed a model that combines three powerful tactical analysis tools: the partial convex hull (areas formed by players from specific lines of the team), Voronoi diagrams, and the collective centroid. While it may sound...

15 Oct Practical Applications of Player-to-Ball Distance Analysis in the Defensive Block

Posted at 12:13h in Research

At LaLiga, we have developed an advanced model that analyzes the defensive block's behavior by measuring the distances players maintain to the ball. This model utilizes key tactical concepts like the convex hull and the team centroid to divide the field into four sectors, analyzing...

11 Oct New Metric Based on the Centroid to Measure Rational Space Occupation in Football
