Abstract

The aim of the present study is to analyze the tactical differences between the counterattack actions in the English Premier League and the Spanish League of the 2017-2018 season. The counterattack occurs in the moment of transition game defense-attack, defined by Casáis (2015) as the game situation in which the defending team regains possession of the ball to try to apply the offensive tactical principles and thus progress in the field with the intention of getting a goal. According to Fernández-Navarro et al. (2016), the counterattack has some special characteristics: longer passes, fewer passes, shorter sequences of passes and fewer touches. From the previous studies, it highlights that of Oberstone (2011), which found some significant results: the English Premier League had a lower percentage of shots on goal than the Spanish League. Likewise, the League presented greater number of success when converting the shots to goal in goal.
