Purpose

The present study intends to analyse the tactical schematics, outs, and corners marked in the last 12 meters of the court, through notational analysis, sequential analysis, and detection of T-patterns.

Methods

We analysed outs (n = 71) and corners (n = 46) performed by the professional futsal team of Sport Lisbon and Benfica. The Tactical Scheme Observation System in Futsal and the Lince® computer program were used. The data were analysed with IBM SPSS Statistics®, SDIS-GSEQ®, and THEME® programs.

Results

The finalization of the tactical schemes takes place preferably after a pass, to the outer zones 5, 8, and 9. The sequential analysis showed some regularities when there is a second pass directed to zones 5 and 6, and regularity was verified in the finalization in interior zone 2. T-patterns were recorded in the execution of the observed tactical schemes.

Conclusions

The finalization of the tactical schemes takes place after 1 or 2 passes occurring in external areas.
