ABSTRACT / SAŽETAK:

Software analysis of player’s motion tracking data during a football match became very important analytically-diagnostic mean for tracking of player’s functionality and efficiency in modern football. The aim of this study was to determine the intensity and structure of players’ motion during the qualification rounds for UEFA Europa League.

To record the matches with the system BioIRC Tracking Motion. Algorithmic part of the software for video editing, i.e., for players’ motion tracking, was based on determining the level of similarity of the object’s color statistical distribution. The results of motion tracking analysis, were obtained using our self-developed motion tracking software. We compared our results with results of motion tracking analysis for players obtained during whole duration of the UEFA Europa League championship in seasons 2011/12 and 2012/13. Results of motion tracking analysis for FC Red Star’s players during the match FC Red Star – FC Bordeaux, have showed us that the extent of their motion during the game, significantly overcome average values in European competition.
