“…These data may assist in developing more adequate match-action-specific training strategies, thus enhancing performance and potentially reducing the risk of injury. Interestingly, only two studies (Ribeiro et al, 2020 ; Yiannaki et al, 2020 ) used wearable technology (i.e., GPS or accelerometry) during the games, highlighting the need for further research regarding the description of the external loads experienced by players during official competition.…”

“…In futsal, several studies have used video analysis and computer-based tracking systems but only two studies have used wearable technology (GPS or accelerometer) to analyze match-play demands ( Table 1) (Dogramaci and Watsford, 2006;Barbero-Alvarez et al, 2008;Castagna et al, 2009;Dogramaci et al, 2011;Makaje et al, 2012;Bueno et al, 2014;Caetano et al, 2015;Milioni et al, 2016;Milanez et al, 2020;Ohmuro et al, 2020;Ribeiro et al, 2020;Yiannaki et al, 2020). Most recently, Ribeiro et al (2020) analyzed a series of kinematic, mechanical, and metabolic variables during match-play using GPS wearable devices (WIMU PRO TM , Realtrack Systems, Almeria, Spain) and found that the total distance covered was 3,749 ± 1,123 m and sprinting (≥18.0 km•h −1 ) distance corresponded to 135 ± 54 m. Moreover, the authors reported that futsal players performed a great number of high-intensity ACC (87 ± 49) and DEC (80 ± 32), when compared to the total number of jumps (9 ± 4).…”

“…Due to the frequent intermittent high-intensity actions that occur in most team-sports, researchers have long been interested in understanding the physiological stress imposed during the match by analyzing variables such as heart rate (HR), oxygen uptake (VO 2 ), or blood lactate concentration ([La]) (Spencer et al, 2005;Impellizzeri et al, 2006;Ostojic et al, 2006). Particularly in futsal, eight studies (Barbero-Alvarez et al, 2008;Castagna et al, 2009;Rodrigues et al, 2011;Makaje et al, 2012;Charlot et al, 2016;Milioni et al, 2016;Bekris et al, 2020;Yiannaki et al, 2020) have investigated the physiological responses during a match ( Table 1). Barbero-Alvarez et al (2008) monitored the HR (Polar Vantage NV) of 10 players during four competitive futsal matches.…”

“…Of note, the number of futsal-related investigations is growing in recent years. Several studies have described competition demands (Dogramaci and Watsford, 2006 ; Barbero-Alvarez et al, 2008 ; Castagna et al, 2009 ; Dogramaci et al, 2011 ; Makaje et al, 2012 ; Bueno et al, 2014 ; Caetano et al, 2015 ; Milioni et al, 2016 ; Milanez et al, 2020 ; Ohmuro et al, 2020 ; Ribeiro et al, 2020 ; Yiannaki et al, 2020 ) by reporting the physiological (Barbero-Alvarez et al, 2008 ; Castagna et al, 2009 ; Rodrigues et al, 2011 ; Makaje et al, 2012 ; Charlot et al, 2016 ; Milioni et al, 2016 ; Bekris et al, 2020 ; Yiannaki et al, 2020 ), neuromuscular (Caetano et al, 2015 ; Milioni et al, 2016 ; Milanez et al, 2020 ; Ribeiro et al, 2020 ), or biochemical responses (Moreira et al, 2011 ; de Moura et al, 2013 ; Bekris et al, 2020 ) following a competitive match. In addition, different authors have shown particular interest in describing the characteristics of futsal players such as anthropometrics (Baroni and Leal Junior, 2010 ; Gomes et al, 2011 ; Jovanovic et al, 2011 ; Garrido-Chamorro et al, 2012 ; de Moura et al, 2013 ; Pedro et al, 2013 ; Ramos-Campo et al, 2014 ; Galy et al, 2015 ; Nikolaidis et al, 2019 ; López-Fernández et al, 2020 ) and physiological (Barbero-Alvarez et al, 2009 ; Gorostiaga et al, 2009 ; Baroni and Leal Junior, 2010 ; Castagna and Barbero-Alvarez, 2010 ; Milanez et al, 2011 ; Makaje et al, 2012 ; Boullosa et al, 2013 ; Oliveira et al, 2013 ; Pedro et al, 2013 ; Cuadrado-Peñafiel et al, 2014 ; Miloski et al, 2014 ; Soares-Caldeira et al, 2014 ; De Freitas et al, 2015 , 2019 ; Galy et al, …”

Physical and Physiological Match-Play Demands and Player Characteristics in Futsal: A Systematic Review

et al. 2020

Futsal, also known as five-aside indoor soccer, is a team-sport that is becoming increasingly popular. In fact, the number of futsal-related investigations is growing in recent years. This review aimed to summarize the scientific literature addressing the match-play demands from the following four dimensions: time-motion/external load analysis and physiological, neuromuscular, and biochemical responses to competition. Additionally, it aimed to describe the anthropometric, physiological, and neuromuscular characteristics of elite and sub-elite male futsal players, contemplating the differences between competition levels. The literature indicates that elite futsal players cover greater total distance with higher intensities and perform a greater number of sprints during match-play when compared to sub-elite players. The physiological demands during competition are high (average intensity of ≥85% maximal heart rate and ∼80% maximum oxygen uptake [VO 2max ]), with decrements between the two halves. Research suggests that neuromuscular function decreased and hormonal responses increased up to 24 h after the match. Considering anthropometric characteristics, players present low percentage of body fat, which seems commonplace among athletes from different on-court positions and competition levels. Elite players display greater values and at VO 2max with respect to sub-elite competitors. Little is known regarding elite and sub-elite futsal players' neuromuscular abilities (strength, jumping, sprinting, and change of direction [COD]). However, it appears that elite players present better sprinting abilities compared to lower-level athletes. Futsal players aiming to compete at the highest level should focus on developing maximal speed, lower-body power and strength, aerobic capacity, and lean muscle mass.

Although many studies on collective tactical behaviour have been published in the last decade, no study has revised and summarized the findings provided for futsal. The main aim of this systematic review was to identify and discuss the geometrical centre (GC), distance and area tactical variables used to assess team behaviour in futsal. In addition, it summarizes the findings on the tactical response during futsal competition and training. A systematic review of the relevant articles provided on futsal was carried out using seven electronic databases (SPORTDiscus, ProQuest, Cochrane Plus, Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed and Web of Science) until September 25, 2019. From a total of 1,209 studies initially found, 12 were included in the qualitative synthesis. There were some trends in the analysis of positional data in futsal with the most relevant situations analysed being 1 vs 1 and 5 vs 4+Goalkeeper. The distances and angles between two points were the most assessed tactical variables. Five types of distance variables were used to assess collective tactical behaviour in futsal: GC-GC, GC-player, player-player, player-ball and player-space. Pressure (GC-GC) was greater in shots on goal than in tackles during professional futsal matches. Area variables were reduced to occupied space, exploration space and dominant area. Occupied space was measured only during competition while the dominant area was measured only during training sessions. The surface area and dominant regions were greater when players were attacking in comparison to when they were defending. In addition, two non-linear techniques (i.e. relative phase and entropy) were applied to analyse synchronisation and complexity and regularity or predictability. Defenders were highly synchronous, while attackers tried to break this coordination to achieve possibilities for action. Task constraints are suitable to induce different regularity patterns. This review is an opportunity to develop studies aimed at bridging the gap in collective tactical behaviour in futsal.
