| Summary: | Introduction and objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the influence, interaction and performance of the key player in the offensive phase of a football match. Material and Methods: Integrated in the English football league (Barclays U21 - Premier League), three matches were analyzed. To measure the influence of the key player throughout the three matches, the program Videobserver: Sport Video Analysis® was used. This allowed the analysis of all the finalization situations performed by the players and the intra-team behavior, assessing, thus, the most influential athletes in the construction of the game actions. Results: The results indicated that the key-player accomplished the higher number of interactions in the general reckoning of the three matches, especially concerning passes and crosses. This type of player tends to be overriding in the transition of the defense process to the offense process of the team. Discussion and conclusion: We concluded that the performance of the key-player in young teams can be related to the number of interactions and connections established with his peers. In that sense, besides playing, a key-player makes the team play and conducts their performance throughout the game. |
