19:45 | Italy VS France Free! |
The 2022 World Cup in Qatar has come to an end. Despite various fears of football analysts, the World Cup turned out to be bright and brought a lot of emotions to the fans. The
Corner-stats.com team compared the tournament statistics of the World Cup 2022 with the statistics of the World Cup 2018, as well as with the statistics of the English Premier League, which is not inferior to the World Cup in teams squads:
Attack:
Goals |
Goals 1 half |
Shots | On target | Corners | Crosses | Longballs | |
WC 2022 | 2.62 | 1.05 | 22.02 | 7.86 | 8.58 | 33.27 | 129.11 |
WC 2018 | 2.59 | 1.02 | 24.67 | 7.70 | 9.19 | 32.31 | 139.62 |
EPL 2022/23 | 2.87 | 1.32 | 25.19 | 8.98 | 10.18 | 35.03 | 133.28 |
As you can see from the table, there are more shots, corners, crosses and goals in EPL than in the World Cups. But if we analyze the statistics by halves, we will see that this difference is formed due to the first halves (the ratio of goals in the 2nd half to goals in the 1st half in EPL is 1.17, in the World Cups - 1.49 and 1.54). Probably, this is due to the fact that in the first halves at World Cup the teams study each other, as well as with bigger responsibility for the result.
Defence and cautions:
Yellow cards | Red cards | Fouls | Tackles | Aerials | Offsides | Throw-ins | |
WC 2022 | 3.22 | 0.05 | 24.19 | 31.58 | 26.62 | 3.87 | 39.91 |
WC 2018 | 3.34 | 0.06 | 26.41 | 31.80 | 37.97 | 2.62 | 40.20 |
EPL 2022/23 | 3.55 | 0.08 | 20.62 | 34.11 | 26.80 | 3.27 | 39.12 |
Violation statistics show that there are significantly more fouls at World Cups than in EPL, while there are fewer cards (both yellow and red). There is no clear trend in tackles, offsides and throw-ins.
We can also note the decrease in the number of longballs and aerials at the World Cup 2022 (and EPL 2022/23) compared to the World Cup 2018. It seems that modern football is becoming less vertical.
We hope that our analysis of World Cup statistics will help you better understand the play of national football teams. And soon we expect the resumption of home championships and even more good football!
