This is the section to turn to for those searching for statistics on second-half performances in the Virsliga. These stats make it possible to better analyse teams’ play in the last 45 minutes of a match.
Studying second-half stats greatly helps in measuring teams’ performances after half-time. The second half is the time in the match when coaches make adjustments to their strategies and players put it all on the line.
To find out how Riga and Ventspils have performed just in the second half of their matches thus far in the competition, let’s take a look at some of their numbers:
Riga - Analysis of 2nd half performance
Riga has played in 28 matches thus far in this Virsliga campaign, and this is their record when only counting the 2nd half of those matches: 8 wins, 10 draws, and 9 losses.
Ventspils - Analysis of 2nd half performance
On the other side, Ventspils has played in 28 matches, and their record during the final 45 minutes is: 12 wins, 11 draws, and 5 losses.
The 2nd half is the most critical part of any match. It’s when the main tactical and personnel adjustments are made and physical and mental fatigue start to set in.
So while it’s important to study matches over the course of the full 90 minutes, analysis of the final 45 minutes can show a different perspective in terms of the teams’ performance in the competition.
