Complex systems in football: how to apply the theory of complexity to the game
Football is an extremely popular sport worldwide, with millions of people playing and seeing it every day. However, football is a complex system where multiple factors interact to determine the result of the game. The behavior of the system is emerging and the result of the game is difficult to predict due to tactics, strategy, training, technology, psychology and other factors that influence the game. Elite soccer teams are increasingly using the science of complex systems to improve their performance, analyzing data, simulating games and using technology to collect information about players' performance.
