Real Madrid's stadium


It's the offseason, but I thought this was really interesting. Maybe I missed it before?

The acceleration and change of direction and deceleration can be eye opening.

Since we are talking about football vs soccer this is an interesting video talking about why Messi is one of the best and it talks about his movement in comparison to a former Chiefs player of all people Jamaal Charles.

That's pretty impressive. Not to denigrate him but the comparison to a football player in pads running is not a fair comparison.

It’s obviously apples and oranges to compare soccer players to football players who wear pads and get hit. But without a doubt soccer is extremely intensive on cardio and there’s hard data. They generally run about 7-9 miles. And it is basically like doing a 90 minute practice where you did nonstop sprints with minute breaks in between each one.

https://canada.humankinetics.com/blo...-soccer-player
“ sprints in soccer are 10 to 30 yards (9 to 27 m) long and happen every 45 to 90 seconds. The overall distance an adult male professional player covers at a sprint is roughly 800 to 1,000 yards (730 to 910 m), although in 10- to 30-yard (9 to 27 m) chunks. Hard runs (cruising) happen every 30 to 60 seconds. The time between these hard runs is spent walking, jogging, or standing.”

So you're saying someone running in pads is harder than someone running while dribbling a ball with their feet?

Honestly someone running in pads straight line speed and him running while controling the ball at his feet while also managing the defense that is closing in on him. I agree its not a fair comparison but not in the direction you think.

Running in pads in a pattern while reading the defense and then adjusting to a ball thrown from 40 yards away and catching it while still maintaining momentum knowing at any moment someone could slam into you at a force comparable to small automobile accident vs. running while kicking a ball and then slowly walking around until the ball comes back to you. Hmmm....wonder which one is harder?

Honestly....completely disagree and I do not think you have a great read on the situation but no reason to go on about it.

That’s a very fair point. I don’t think anyone is saying soccer is nearly as violent as football but it’s definitely more physical than basketball and the requirements of a soccer player from a fitness perspective is one of the most demanding. Like Zach’s video showed, Messi accelerates at the same speed as Charles but he is doing it with a ball at his feet. It’s a lot harder to dribble a ball with your feet, keep your head up and run at full speed than just about anything else in sports.

People love to say they only like sports where you can use your hands and I find it’s because having to use your feet is too hard for them so they’ve just poo-poo’d it from the start.

I just did. I initially took your post as meaning Messi could keep up with Charles in a foot race, which obviously isn't the case.
