Abstract

Purpose: To quantify the peak post-pitch-entry physical responses of soccer substitutes while assessing contextual influences. Peak responses may be important performance indicators for substitutes introduced to provide a physical impact. Method: Thirty-three professional substitutes wore Microelect...

Peak responses may be important performance indicators for substitutes introduced to provide a physical impact. Method: Thirty-three professional substitutes wore Microelectromechanical Systems during 44 matches (4 &#xB1; 3 observations&#xB7;player&#x2212;1). Post-pitch-entry relative peak values for total and high-speed (&gt; 5.5 m&#xB7;s&#x2212;1) distances, average acceleration, and PlayerLoad&#x2122; were calculated using rolling averages over 60-s to 600-s. Linear mixed models assessed contextual influences (position, substitution timing, scoreline, and location). Results: Substitutes introduced during the final ~15 min of match-play covered less high-speed distance than first-half substitutes (~2.8&#x2013;3.1 m&#xB7;min&#x2212;1) over 480-s to 600-s epochs, and less than 60:00&#x2013;74:59 min substitutes (~1.7&#x2013;1.8 m&#xB7;min&#x2212;1) during 540-s and 600-s epochs. Average acceleration during all except 180-s epochs was lower for 75:00+ min substitutes compared with first-half replacements (~0.27&#x2013;0.43 m&#xB7;s&#x2212;2), and lower than 60:00&#x2013;74:59 min substitutes during 60-s (~0.13 m&#xB7;s&#x2212;2). Substitutes introduced when their team was winning recorded greater distances over 120-s to 600-s (~6.2&#x2013;7.7 m&#xB7;min&#x2212;1), and higher PlayerLoad&#x2122; values during 120-s, 180-s, 300-s, and 480-s epochs (~2.7&#x2013;3.6 arbitrary units&#xB7;min&#x2212;1), compared with when scores were level at pitch-entry. Irrespective of substitution timing, substitute midfielders exceeded the total distance of substitute attackers (~5.9&#x2013;16.2 m&#xB7;min&#x2212;1) for all except 360-s and 600-s epochs, and defenders (~13.3&#x2013;26.7 m&#xB7;min&#x2212;1) during epochs &lt; 300-s. Conclusions: This study provides benchmark data for practitioners tailoring training and recovery protocols, particularly &#x201C;top-up&#x201D; conditioning, to the competitive demands of soccer substitutes. Knowing how contextual factors influence substitutes&#x2019; peak match-play responses may help managers/coaches assess the efficacy of substitution strategies.</abstract><type>Journal Article</type><journal>Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport</journal><volume/><journalNumber/><paginationStart>1</paginationStart><paginationEnd>12</paginationEnd><publisher>Informa UK Limited</publisher><placeOfPublication/><isbnPrint/><isbnElectronic/><issnPrint>0270-1367</issnPrint><issnElectronic>2168-3824</issnElectronic><keywords>Fatigue; football; monitoring, substitution</keywords><publishedDay>0</publishedDay><publishedMonth>0</publishedMonth><publishedYear>0</publishedYear><publishedDate>0001-01-01</publishedDate><doi>10.1080/02701367.2020.1823308</doi><url/><notes/><college>COLLEGE NANME</college><department>Sport and Exercise Sciences</department><CollegeCode>COLLEGE CODE</CollegeCode><DepartmentCode>STSC</DepartmentCode><institution>Swansea University</institution><apcterm/><lastEdited>2020-10-30T14:45:19.1174819</lastEdited><Created>2020-09-10T08:39:46.1367199</Created><path><level id="1">Faculty of Science and Engineering</level><level id="2">School of Aerospace, Civil, Electrical, General and Mechanical Engineering - Sport and Exercise Sciences</level></path><authors><author><firstname>Samuel P.</firstname><surname>Hills</surname><order>1</order></author><author><firstname>Stephen</firstname><surname>Barrett</surname><order>2</order></author><author><firstname>Bradley</firstname><surname>Thoseby</surname><order>3</order></author><author><firstname>Liam P.</firstname><surname>Kilduff</surname><order>4</order></author><author><firstname>Martin J.</firstname><surname>Barwood</surname><order>5</order></author><author><firstname>Jon N.</firstname><surname>Radcliffe</surname><order>6</order></author><author><firstname>Carlton B.</firstname><surname>Cooke</surname><order>7</order></author><author><firstname>Mark</firstname><surname>Russell</surname><order>8</order></author><author><firstname>Liam</firstname><surname>Kilduff</surname><orcid>0000-0001-9449-2293</orcid><order>9</order></author></authors><documents><document><filename>55153__18134__71b3999f7f4b421f824e04b3d1d30f63.pdf</filename><originalFilename>55153.pdf</originalFilename><uploaded>2020-09-10T08:44:20.0416038</uploaded><type>Output</type><contentLength>1105211</contentLength><contentType>application/pdf</contentType><version>Accepted Manuscript</version><cronfaStatus>true</cronfaStatus><embargoDate>2021-10-08T00:00:00.0000000</embargoDate><copyrightCorrect>true</copyrightCorrect><language>eng</language></document></documents><OutputDurs/></rfc1807>
