Sažetak
The aim of the paper is to establish differences between the teams at two World Cups by using a computerized system (focus X3) to gather and analyse data on field areas and attacks. There was a total of 2030 entities (attacks) that consisted of 3226 actions in different sub-areas of the field (during World Cup ’ 98, and World Cup ’ 02). The analysed actions in Back field, Midfield and Front field were described by twelve variables: receiving the ball from a team-mate (RB), total number of actions during one attack (NA), passing the ball to a team-mate (a long pass – more than 25 m) (PB_25), passing the ball to a team-mate (a short 5-6 m pass) (PB_5-6), passing the ball to a team-mate (a medium-long pass up to 25 m) (PB-25-ML), gaining the possession of the ball (by taking it away from the opponent, by interception, or gaining possession due to the incorrect pass by an opponent) (GPB), receiving and passing the ball to a team-mate (over 25 m) (RP_25), receiving and passing the ball to a team-mate(a short 5-6 m pass) (RP_5-6), receiving and passing the ball to a team-mate (a medium-long pass up to 25 m) (RP_25-ML), dribbling the ball over long distances (over 25 m) (DB_25), dribbling the ball over short distances (5-6 m) (DB_5-6) and dribbling the ball over medium long distances (up to 25 m) (DB_25_ML). The results show that there are quantitatively bigger changes in actions which occurred in the observed field areas during World Cup ’ 02 compared to the previous cup. This change, which was expected, can be attributed to more complex and sophisticated forms of a training process that improves each year. It is also the reason for these differences. By analysing the discriminative function, it can be seen that the biggest differences occur with the variables: passing of the ball to a team-mate (PB_25) and dribbling the ball over long distances (DB_25).
