Project: Visualizing football team strategies and player performance

Description

In this thesis we present a software prototype to explore football data containing spatiotemporal data. In contrast to most of the current analyses, we show that football visualization is not restricted to statistical information by visualizing playing styles and strategies. We define possession chains as the main element in our analysis of attacking and defending playing styles of football teams. We visualize the structure, attacking tendencies, defending tendencies, set piece tendencies, and playing styles of football teams in an interactive match dashboard.
