Sounds about right really as some games we've had plenty attempts whereas there's been the odd off-game where we've barely troubled the opposition keeper at all - eg away vs Dons

Is that Free Kicks awarded or fouls committed by each team?

It says “fouls awarded “, so I am guessing it’s for fouls awarded 👍

I prefer xG but some may disagree. A tame shot right at the keeper isnt really as close as a decent shot that goes just past the post. I'd probably rather players put it narrowly wide and sometimes got it in than hitting it close to the keeper every time.

How many times do you hear, "He blasted it!", only for the shot to hit the corner flag or go for a throw in???
Shots only count if the go in the net or are saved by the keeper, other than that it will be, "we won on corners"!!!

I alluded to this on another couple of threads, but I would like to see our stats on final balls if such a thing were available.

In the semi final we had a few occasions where we broke away into a 3 v 3 or even 3 v 2 and each time either chose the right ball but screwed up the execution of it, or chose the wrong ball. The same thing happened at least 3 times against Celtic last weekend.

Its clearly becoming something we need to work on in training.

I am guessing yes, we have seen loads of “fouls” go unpunished and therefore not awarded, so I guess it really means the amount of times when the game is stopped in your favour and allowed to take a kick at the ball unopposed.

That was why I asked the question earlier if it referred to 'free kicks awarded', i.e. in your favour.

I thought that 'fouls awarded' sounded like it might be something awarded against you.

Think that would be termed "fouls committed".

I assume it includes free kicks and penalties

Edit: May also exclude free kicks for offside (as offside isn't always included within the 'foul' count), don't know though.

Yeah, that makes sense.


FWIW, I wasn't being deliberately argumentative I've just been a bit slow on the uptake recently.
