Abstract

Within the observational methodology, an analysis of the interaction between kickers and goalkeepers has been carried out, in penalty kicks taken in international team competitions, which allows the goalkeeper to obtain relevant information about the area of the goal to which the kick is going to be directed from the information perceived at different moments of the kick. Data recording and coding was carried out using LINCE software. The record, based on the observation instrument, is structured around four critical frames and possible conditional frames. The reliability of the records was guaranteed by intra-observer and inter-observer agreement, using Cohen's Kappa coefficient. A lag sequential analysis has been carried out, which has been facilitated by the diachronic structure of the record. Based on the results of this analysis, it concluded with a series of relevant guidelines that can be used by goalkeeping coaches to help their goalkeepers to face a penalty kick, considering the information of the context of the penalty kick, of the moment in which the kicker starts his approach to the ball, the interaction between the kicker and the goalkeeper, the moment in which the non-dominant leg of the kicker makes his last support before the kick, and the moment in which the kicker hits the ball.
