Winning soccer games isn't about luck, talent, or yelling from the sidelines.
It's about statistics-and using them correctly.
Even in the English Premier League, teams only retain possession 55% of the time on throw-ins.
Cross the ball into the box? The chance of scoring is less than 1%.
Make one simple tactical adjustment-and that same play can improve scoring chances by over 5×.
This book reveals the hidden numbers behind soccer success and shows you exactly how to use them at the youth, high school, college, and adult levels.
Inside this data-driven soccer coaching book, you'll learn:
- Why forcing attackers wide into the corner lowers scoring odds to just 1.1%
- Why attacking through the middle increases scoring probability to over 60%
- The shot location where goalkeepers have a 0% chance of making the save
- How elite teams quietly use soccer analytics to gain a massive competitive advantage
- Simple, proven strategies that work even with average or developing players
