Astroturf.

What? Just what? How the does AstroTurf effect a keeper throwing a ball into the back of his own net? :lol:

The ball doesn't bounce true on it. The keeper went to trow it across his goal (still a bad mistake), it bounces to the left because of the s*** bounce astroturf gives and goes into his own net.

 

You are a lunatic.

"The correlation between getting the ball past opponents and winning is between 0.3 and 0.4," Reinarzt explained, "with one being a 100 percent correlation. If you then drill down into the numbers of defenders that were taken out, the correlation rises to 0.6, which is statistically very significant."

 

Out of 51 games at France 2016, 34 were won by teams with higher Packing numbers for getting past defenders. Fourteen of the remaining 17 games were drawn, and only three games were lost by those who got beyond defenders more often than their opponents. That much all seems quite intuitive, but the bigger attraction of the system, perhaps, is that it reveals who exactly is responsible for getting the ball past opponents and into dangerous spaces.

 

Would love to see Colback's "Packing" stats.
