Game performance dimensions in the GPET

Tactical context-adaptation performance – Tactical context-adaptation for keeping the ball problems: Efficiency in selecting actions to keep the ball when the tactical problem is coded as “keeping-the-ball context”. – Tactical context-adaptation performance for penetrating the defense problems: Efficiency in selecting actions to advance to the opposing goal when the tactical problem is coded as “penetrating the defense context”. – Tactical context-adaptation performance for attacking the goal problems: Efficiency in selecting actions to try to score when the tactical context is coded as “attacking the goal context”. – Watcher-player: A player is coded as a “watcher-player” when he does not show tactical intention or involvement in the game.
Decision-making:
Attacker on the ball: Pass decision-making Dribbling decision-making Kick decision-making	Attacker off the ball: Get-free skills decision-making
Skill execution
Attacker on the ball: Pass execution Dribbling execution Kick execution	Attacker off the ball: Get-free skills execution

Decision-making and skill execution variables in attacking the goal contexts were not codified in the SSG-R&E that was analysed in this study, because there were no opportunities to score in this game
