The basic unit of analysis was the “team possession” and the main aims of study were: (a) technical, tactical and spatial characteristics of the start, the development and the end of the team possession and its offensive performance, (b) the behavior of the observed team just after losing the ball possession and its defensive performance.
Experts carried out several design and re-design steps of the observation tool to its final form which includes two macro-criteria and 31 dimensions. The process consisted in expert meetings and exploratory observations.
The aim of this study was to develop a new no standard observation tool to analyze soccer offensive performance considering not only the observed team but also some aspects of the opponent behavior, as well as to test its reliability. To build certain observation tools, mixed methods are necessary in order to take advantage of integration between qualitative and quantitative elements. The mixed methods approach involves the collection, analysis, and interpretation of qualitative and quantitative data for the same purpose and within the framework of the same study. Performance analysis in complex sports like soccer requires the study of the influence of the interaction between both teams during the game on final performance. 4Faculty of Psychology, Institute of Neurosciences, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.3Escuela de Doctorado, Universidad Católica de Valencia San Vicente Mártir, Valencia, Spain.2Department of Recreation and Sport Pedagogy, Ohio University, Athens, OH, United States.1Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain.You can search in your App Store for Heja, or just click the link here: (go.heja.Rafael Aranda 1, Joaquín González-Ródenas 2*, Ignacio López-Bondia 1*, Rodrigo Aranda-Malavés 1,3*, Andrés Tudela-Desantes 1* and M.
