dc.description.abstract | Soccer has never been a game of statistics. A team’s style of play has always been reserved for analysts and commentators to explain to the masses. In my research, network analysis and invariant calculation is used to analyze a team’s style of play, specifically for the top four teams in the 2014 World Cup. This was done using passing data implemented in weighted adjacency matrices. | en |
