TLDR
It is demonstrated that all players have high HR throughout a competitive game with periods of near-maximal values, the distance covered by HIR during match play is closely related to the physical capacity, and the Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test can be used as an indicator of the physical match performance of elite female players.Abstract:
Purpose:To examine the activity profile and physical loading of elite female soccer players during match play and to study the relationship between training status and physical match performance.Methods:Time-motion analysis and HR recordings were performed on 14 elite female soccer players dread more

The Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test : a useful tool for evaluation of physical performance in intermittent sports.
TL;DR: The Yo-Yo IR tests provide a simple and valid way to obtain important information of an individual’s capacity to perform repeated intense exercise and to examine changes in performance.

Physical and metabolic demands of training and match-play in the elite football player.
TL;DR: There are major individual differences in the physical demands of players during a game related to physical capacity and tactical role in the team, and these differences should be taken into account when planning the training and nutritional strategies of top-class players, who require a significant energy intake during a week.

High-intensity running in English FA Premier League soccer matches
TL;DR: The results suggest that high-intensity running with and without ball possession is reduced during various phases of elite-standard soccer matches and the activity profiles and fatigue patterns vary among playing positions.

Variation in top level soccer match performance.
TL;DR: The main finding was that TD, HIR and VHIR were greater at the end of the season compared to Best opponent teams compared to Worst opponent teams, which may be used to interpret meaningful changes in match performance in top level soccer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Technical performance during soccer matches of the Italian Serie A league: effect of fatigue and competitive level.
TL;DR: This study showed a decline in technical and physical performance between the first and second half, and that both physical performance and technical skills were different between players from more successful and less successful teams.

Match performance of high-standard soccer players with special reference to development of fatigue
TL;DR: Top-class soccer players performed more high-intensity running during a game and were better at the Yo-Yo test than moderate professional players; fatigue occurred towards the end of matches as well as temporarily during the game, independently of competitive standard and of team position; defenders covered a shorter distance in high- intensity running than players in other playing positions.

TL;DR: The Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test was a valid measure of fitness performance in soccer and had a high reproducibility and sensitivity, allowing for detailed analysis of the physical capacity of athletes in intermittent sports.

The Physiology of Soccer : With Special Reference to Intense Intermittent Exercise
TL;DR: The present thesis deals with the physiological demands of soccer, with a particular focus on the physiological response to repeated intense exercise, and performs physiological measurements in connection with soccer matches.

Activity profile of competition soccer.
TL;DR: The results suggest that high intensity running can be used for making comparisons in soccer and that the interpretation of blood lactate in soccer is limited to giving an indication of the type of activity that has been carried out a few minutes before sampling.

Applied Physiology of Soccer
TL;DR: Soccer players of national and international standard have a maximal aerobic power of around 60 to 65 ml/kg/min, an above average anaerobic alactacid power, and a greater buffer capacity and muscle strength compared with untrained controls, yet seem to be less flexible.
