Alves, R., Dias, G., Nunes, N. A., Querido, S. M., Vaz, V. “…SNA offers a powerful framework to decode the complexity of football performance, evolving from static graphs to dynamic, rolesensitive, and context-rich models. …”

Bandak, E., Thorborg, K., Alkjær, T., Zebis, M. K., Wæhrens, E. E. “…The findings reveal a complex interplay across structural, individual, team, and organizational levels, offering insights that can inform context-specific strategies to promote the implementation of evidence-based injury prevention training in Danish girls' and women's elite football.…”

Drayton, A. M., Hamad, M. J., Spyrou, K. “…Although sprint, change of direction, and technical ability had all recovered by 72 hours, studies still observed significant impairments in vertical jump ability and hamstring strength, highlighting the complexity of postmatch fatigue. Nevertheless, variations in postmatch physical impairments were observed across studies, suggesting that many factors such as baseline physical fitness levels play a determining role in the duration of these impairments. …”

Fiorenza, E. “…The historical evolution of football in Italy is deeply intertwined with the country`s socio-political and cultural dynamics, making it a complex and multifaceted phenomenon. Initially an elite pastime among the northern urban aristocracy and bourgeoisie, football only became a popular sport after World War I, eventually serving as a propaganda tool under the Fascist regime. …”

Vial, S., Scanlan, M., Beranek, P., Kadlec, D., Barley, O. R., Cochrane Wilkie, J. “…However, these methods often assume linearity, potentially oversimplifying complex, nonlinear interactions, and generalizing group-level data that may misrepresent individual trends. …”

Loturco, I., Alcaraz, P. E., Oliveira, L. P., Tavares, L. D., Requena, B., Freitas, T. T., Pereira, L. A. “…This gap was even narrower in more complex speed tasks, such as COD drills (Difference = 4.7%), and may be attributed to the significant difference in SM; greater in male players) and its impact on the COD-Deficit. …”

Avcil, C., Dalaman, Z. B. “…Furthermore, this research underscores the need for intersectional policy approaches that address the complex interplay of gender, geography, and socio-economic factors in shaping women's football participation and development in Türkiye.…”

Vatne, E., Oliva-Lozano, J. M., Saenz, C., Cost, R., Hagen, J. “…Optimal recovery supports health and enhances performance in soccer players, yet the empirical evidence on various recovery strategies in soccer is complex to interpret. This review aimed to summarize the literature on post-exercise recovery modalities in male and female soccer players of all ages and competition levels. …”

Tabben, M., Hassanmirzaei, B., Singh, G., Miladi, R., Chaabane, M., McCourt, P., Serner, A., Clarsen, B., Ellouze, Z., Mokrani, M., Whiteley, R., D`Hooghe, P., Cardinale, M., Schumacher, Y. O., Bahr, R. “…We propose a step-by-step framework for IIS implementation that addresses these complexities while providing a strong foundation for expanding surveillance across other sports settings. …”

Peek, K., Ross, A. G., Williamson, P. R., Georgieva, J., Andersen, T. E., Meyer, T., Gouttebarge, V., Dahlen, S., Clarke, M., Serner, A. “…Heading in football (soccer) is a complex skill involving deliberate head-to-ball contact, which may pose short-, medium-, and long-term risk to player brain health. …”

Žuvela, F., Cikotic, L., Jelaska, I. “…The results provide in-depth insight into the complex interactions between observed factors and can be useful for the development and application of contemporary position-specific training systems for young soccer players.…”

Yang, J., Qin, S., Ren, D. “…DeepSeek-R1 yielded the most accessible text (Grade Level 8), while ChatGPT-o3-mini produced the most complex (Grade Level 12). ChatGPT-o1 was the most verbose. …”

Privalov, A. V., Nifontov, M. Yu., Mukhamedzyanov, R. R., Dmitriev, I. V. “…The framework of the proposed model for pre-competitive goalkeeping training in beach soccer encompasses elements that consider: the temporal dimensions of implementation (spanning two to four weeks); the characteristics of specialized training (horizontal physical training, its individualization, including the biomechanical aspects of each player); the complexity of the training regimen; the adaptability to specific training loads; and the practical application. …”

Lyubetsky, N. P., Agafonov, S. V., Fomenko, V. D., Chub, S. A. “…Direct participants of the pedagogical experiment were 20 young football players aged 13-14 years at the training stage of preparation in the sports school, 10 of whom were included in the experimental group and 10 players in the control group. Complexes of high-intensity interval training were developed, aimed at increasing the aerobic performance of the athletes' body and in their content represented high-intensity exercises that alternated with various variations of rest. …”

Yang, L., McEwan, H. “…Discussion The results highlight a significant similarity in well-structured youth academies between the Scottish and Chinese football clubs. Considering the complex and dynamic process of Talent Development, a well-structured youth academy sets up a solid foundation for players to be trained under the long-term development principle, thus enabling players a consistent pathway and smoother transitions between stages. …”
