ABSTRACT
Purpose:
This study aimed to classify typical futsal movement patterns while in ball possession and clarify the effect of tournament stages on these movement profiles.
Methods:
A total of 5647 movements in possession of a ball during 8 international futsal matches were analysed. These matches consisted of 4 group stages, and there were 4 knockout stage matches (2 semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and the final). On the basis of the observation of 2 experienced analysts, 8 translational and rotational movement indicators were established: forward translation, backward translation, sideway translation, and slow rotation (defined as the low traction demand movement), and side-cut, u-cut, fast rotation, and sudden stop (defined as the high traction demand movement).
Results:
The overall results highlighted that 82.48% of the analysed movements were translational movements [top-three highest movements proportion: (1) forward translation: 26.52%, (2) side-cut: 15.76%, and (3) sideway translation: 14.36%]. Furthermore, there was a significantly higher frequency of translational movements among players during knockout stage matches (p = 0.03), suggesting that these translational movements form the foundation aspects in maintaining ball possession. Also, a significantly higher occurrence was observed for 2 high traction demand movements [u-cut (p = 0.02) and fast rotation (p < 0.0001)] during knockout stage matches compared with group stage matches.
Conclusions:
High traction demand translational movements related to changes of direction were significantly influenced by the stages of the tournament in highly competitive futsal matches.
