This study examined distances covered at low (1–2 m s⁻²), moderate (2–3 m s⁻²) and high (>3 m s⁻²) acceleration (L_ACC, M_ACC and H_ACC respectively) and deceleration (L_DEC, M_DEC, and H_DEC respectively) during competitive football games. Temporal and transient patterns of acceleration and deceleration were also examined.

Observational, repeated measures.

Thirty-six professional male professional footballers were monitored using a 10 Hz non-differential global positioning system (NdGPS). Match data was organised into six 15 min periods (P1: 1–15 min, P2: 16–30 min, P3: 31–45 min, P4: 46–60 min, P5: 61–75 min, and P6: 76–90 min) for analysis of temporal patterns, and into eighteen 5 min periods for analysis of transient patterns. ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc tests were used to identify significant (p < 0.05) differences between periods.
