Konstantinos Xifaras Wolverhampton Olympiacos Result 1 1 Performance 728.4 929.8 Δ (performance) % 18.8 Production 10.2 11.9 Quality 76.9 78.0 Rhythm of the match (11.0) very fast Δ(Days of rest) Team 8 Δ(Days) Players Average 9.23 Δ(Days) Rotation 1.23 Cohesion Difficulty of the match 7th of the season Conclusion : + The Cohesion of the Team : Δ(Days) Rotation = 1.23 + the 8 days of preparation + highest Quality of the actions 78% (against the 15 most difficult matches played that season) + the overcome by 16% on Production are some of the reasons for that good performance of Olympiacos against the 4 times more valuable Wolverhampton. The superior effectiveness of Wolverhampton (13 shots) against the poor effectiveness of Olympiacos (6 shots) is the equalizer of the match. One reason for the poor effectiveness is the very fast match (Olympiacos is not used on such fast matches, only 2 matches were faster, against Bayern- Tottenham). Draw seems like a fair result.

Konstantinos Xifaras Conclusion : - Medium Production (28th out of 46 in that season) - Very low Quality (40th out of 46 in that season) - Low Performance (33rd out of 46 in that season) - Over-Rotation (8 out of 10 players) - Δ(Days) Rotation = 10.84. Unnecessary Over-Rotation (next match against Atromitos in 5 days and the next 2 matches against Panionios & Lamia). Over-Rotated the team on the previous match against Xanthi. 5 easy matches in the row for the appropriate rotation before the series of matches against Arsenal-PAOK-Arsenal. - The medium Rhythm of the match (slowest of the 4 matches against Lamia) reduced the superior Quality of the players of Olympiacos (the line-up of Olympiacos has 10 times more Value than Lamia’s Line-up) + The good performance of the Defenders or/and the inability of Lamia (1 shot only, from set play) + The small difficulty of the match (40th out of 46 in that season) Although the negative parameters on the management of the match are important, the Δ(Value) is big. The 8 shots of Olympiacos is the evidence of it’s superiority on such a poor Performance against an opponent with very low capabilities. Win (0-1) seems like a fair result. The final result (Draw) had serious possibilities. Since it was the 1st match (Cup), the result forced Olympiacos to a low Rotation on the next math against Lamia (3-2) just 8 days before Arsenal-PAOK-Arsenal. The result forced Olympiacos to over-rotation against Panionios in order to balance it. Result = Lost the cohesion of the team and Olympiacos was unable to follow the fast-rhythm of the Arsenal (20% less). Lost 0-1.
