ARBOIX-ALIO, J y AGUILERA-CASTELLS, J. The influence of scoring first in roller hockey. CPD [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.3, pp.222-233. Epub 26-Jul-2021. ISSN 1989-5879.
The main purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of the first goal in roller hockey and to know its impact on the final result. A secondary objective was to assess if there were significant differences when the team that scores first was the local or the visitor. For this purpose, 240 matches of Ok Liga (the highest Spanish division) and 182 of First National Division (the second highest division) were analyzed during the season 2016-2017, assessing the final result of the teams when they scored first.
Results showed that the advantage of scoring first exists both in the Ok Liga and in the First National Division with 64.14% and 62.91% respectively. Likewise, the advantage of scoring the first goal when teams play at home is significantly greater for the First National Division teams than Ok Liga teams. In addition, it was obtained a high correlation between the final performance of the teams (points obtained in the classification) and the effect of scoring first. Therefore, it is demonstrated the importance for a team to dominate this aspect and it is suggested that this data can help the coach and staff to decide which strategy to use at each moment of the game according to the result.
