MANEIRO-DIOS, R; AMATRIA-JIMENEZ, M; MORAL-GARCIA, JE  e  LOPEZ-GARCIA, S. Observational analysis of the interline relationships of the Spanish Soccer Team, using polar coordinates. CPD [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.2, pp.18-32.  Epub 25-Set-2023. ISSN 1989-5879.

The objective of the present study was to determine the degree of inter-line relation (activation and inhibition) and with respect to its rival that presents the Spanish Selection of soccer when in possession of the ball. For this we analyzed the matches of Spain during the UEFA Euro 2012 (6861 multi-events have been coded). An ad hoc observation instrument, consisting of 8 criteria and 96 categories, was used to record four lines or levels of organization: POR (goalkeeper), DEF (defenses), CEN (midfielders) and DEL (forward). also his relationship with the rival (JR). The data were subjected to polar coordinate analysis using each line as focal behavior. The results show the relationship and cohesion inter-lines that the equipment presents, as well as the activation of rival players. This allows us to know the tactical component of the Spanish team and its relationship with the rival players. The effectiveness of observational methodology has also been highlighted as an optimal methodological filter for the study of players' spontaneous behavior, including powerful techniques such as polar coordinate analysis. Future studies go deep into the reality of the player in particular, and then build the complex structure that make up the interrelationships between the different members of a team. Undoubtedly this will result in a better performance of the reality of football on the playing fields.
