Analyzing Line-Breaking Passes with Luiz Fernando Silva

Min Read
Interview

Al Taawoun FC’s Data & Performance Analyst Luiz Fernando Silva takes us inside his approach to analyzing the opponent’s line-breaking passes - and walks through how he built his own metric and the workflow around it, including:

‣ 𝘿𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙖𝙨𝙨 (between the lines, inside the block, forward, short/medium)

‣ 𝙎𝙥𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙨 to see where opponents are weak or can hurt you

‣ 𝙏𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙪𝙨𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 for the staff and players

His custom metric is applied across all games, so he can base his work on a full season of an opponent instead of being limited to just 2 or 3 matches.

For the full 8-minute breakdown of his metric and workflow, watch here:
