Introduction course scout/analyst: Part V — Video analysis report

One of the most essential tools in football analysis is video analysis. By analysing game footage, coaches and analysts can gain valuable insights into the performance of their team and their opponents. Video analysis allows coaches to identify strengths and weaknesses in their team’s performance and make data-driven decisions to improve their tactics and game plans.

Journalists, commentators, and pundits use video analysis to provide in-depth insights into team performance, player abilities, and game strategies. Video analysis can help to paint a clear picture of a match’s events and give context to important moments that might be missed by casual viewers.
