This review provides a definition for multidirectional speed (MDS) and evaluates its technical
and mechanical underpinnings. This review explores each component of MDS while …

Over the years, soccer has become more physically demanding; the number and frequency
of high-intensity actions have increased, and these activities are decisive in determining the …

The purpose of the present study was to:(a) assess centripetal force (CentF) and changes of
direction (COD) in elite soccer players according to playing position (central defender, CD; …

We examined the relationships among linear speed, vertical jumping ability and curve sprint
(CS) performance. Moreover, the correlations between linear and curvilinear sprint velocities …

The aims of this study were to examine the periods in which the maximum speed actions
occurred during elite soccer matches and analyse these actions considering the effect of …

Sprinting in curvilinear trajectories is an important soccer ability, corresponding to~ 85% of
the actions performed at maximum velocity in a soccer league. We compared the …

The aims of this study were (i) to compare the sprint times between linear-sprint (LS) and
curved-sprint (CS) tests of different radii, and (ii) to examine the relationships between sprint …
