Types of Advantages in Football by Agustín Peraita (Patreon)

The advantages are the situations in which a football player finds himself, at a given moment, in a beneficial space-time condition for oneself and for their team.

a) NUMERICAL ADVANTAGE: 

Refers to the possible arrangement of a space-time advantage due to the positioning of more players from one team in a specific area.

b) POSITIONAL ADVANTAGE: 

Refers to the possible arrangement of a space-time advantage due to the positioning and body profile of the player in relation to the opponent.

c) QUALITATIVE ADVANTAGE: 

The action capacity of a football player in relation to the situation presented to them allows them to have a space-time advantage. It is an advantage that emanates from the player's own characteristics and allows them to "impose themselves".

d) DYNAMIC ADVANTAGE: 

The dynamic advantage aims to identify the action capacity that a football player has through their movement in relation to the point where they are. The dynamic advantage derives from the trajectories and speed of movement of the players in relation to their position.

e) SOCIO-AFFECTIVE ADVANTAGE: 

Societies (between football players) that unbalance plays over and over again simply by connecting in a more synchronized manner. Duos, trios, or even quartets. Interacting closely or distantly, when they connect, everything seems easier for their team.
