Goals

Goals are the other measure by which goalkeepers are commonly rated – although often a better metric of overall team defense! Still, knowing when and where goals occurred is useful, especially when looking at patterns over time, and analyzing them against save patterns.

Crosses

Crosses are an often underrated aspect of goalkeeping performance. Tracking how a keeper deals with balls into the 18 – both during corners and in regular play – is a key measure of their ability to take ownership of the area and play in the air.

How does Stopper track set plays? Glad you asked.

PENALTY KICKS

Penalties are tracked on the same screen as Saves and Goals – simply tap the “Penalty Kicks” toggle at the top of the screen to tag an action as a penalty. 

FREE KICKS

Free kicks are also tracked on the same screen as Saves and Goals – tap the “Free Kicks” toggle at the top of the screen to tag an action as a free kick. 

CORNER KICKS

Corner kicks are tracked on the Crosses screen – tap the “Corner Kicks” toggle at the top of the screen to tag an action as a corner kick.

Distribution

The modern goalkeeper is just as much a sweeper as a keeper, moving the ball around the back and creating offensive opportunities. Distribution is measured across 5 different categories, with a completed pass counted as one that allows the target to continue to play, either making a successful pass themselves or by taking additional touches on the ball.

Communication

Another underrated aspect of modern goalkeeping is the ability of a keeper to quarterback the team. From their position they can see the play develop, direct their defense and generate attacking opportunities. Communication is assessed across 3 categories – how the keeper directs their team on the ball, off the ball, and around the ball.

Player Self Evaluation

The psychological aspect of the modern game is just as important as the physical and strategic. Stopper tracks how players feel about their performance, after each game and over time.
