Resumo(s)
This study aimed to detect and analyse regular patterns of play in
football teams during their offensive phase, through the combination of
the sequential analysis technique and semi-structured interviews of
experienced first League Portuguese coaches.
The sample included 36 games (12 per team) of the F.C. Barcelona,
Internazionalle Milano, and Manchester United teams that were
analysed through sequential analysis with the software SDIS-GSEQ.
Based on the detected patterns, semi-structured interviews were carried
out with 8 expert high-performance football coaches. Data were
analysed through the content analysis technique using the software
Nvivo 9.
The detected patterns of play revealed specific characteristics of different
philosophies of play. Through the performed content analysis we could
observe that coaches interpreting play patterns mainly based their
opinions on tactical-strategic and tactical-technical aspects, and on the
characteristics of the players on their team.
On the other hand, consideration was given to three of the main
evolutionary trends of play/soccer practice, which focus on the
development of exercises that cover: i) the connection between the four
play moments (offensive/defensive organization and transitions); ii) the
pre-programmed ball possession recovery; iii) the execution of set pieces.
