ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION OF TACTICAL BEHAVIOR IN SOCCER

Researches about sports performance have been showing that the tactical constraints are vital to the performance of players and teams in Soccer. However, the assessment tools of player behavior have been focused on technical and bio-mechanics aspects. The aims of this paper are to review and to analyze evaluation tools proposed in the literature and to present recommendations of inclusion of tactical principles in systems that seek the analysis and evaluation of the players' behavior in Soccer. The proposal presented comprises ten fundamental tactical principles of Soccer game, the place of action and the action’s outcome.
