Twenty\u2010seven Spanish Premier League matches played by a professional soccer team were monitored in the 2005\u20132006 season using a multiple\u2010camera match analysis system. The dependent variables were the distance covered by players at different intensities. Data were analysed using a linear regression analysis with three independent variables: match status (i.e. whether the team was winning, losing or drawing), match location (i.e. playing at home or away), and quality of the opponents (strong or weak). The top\u2010class players performed less high\u2010intensity activity (&gt;19.1\u00a0km \u00b7 h<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>) when winning than when they losing, but more distance was covered by walking and jogging when winning. For each minute winning, the distance covered at submaximal or maximal intensities decreased by 1\u00a0m (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05) compared with each minute losing. For each minute winning, the distance covered by walking and jogging increased by 2.1\u00a0m (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05) compared with each minute losing. The home teams covered a greater distance than away teams during low\u2010intensity activity (&lt;14.1\u00a0km \u00b7 h<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01). Finally, the better the quality of the opponent, the higher the distance covered by walking and jogging. Our findings emphasize the need for match analysts and coaches to consider the independent and interactive effects of match location, quality of opposition, and match status during assessment of the physical component of football performance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/17461390903273994","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,12]],"date-time":"2010-02-12T16:39:53Z","timestamp":1265992793000},"page":"103-109","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":170,"title":["The effects of situational variables on distance covered at various speeds in elite soccer"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Carlos","family":"Lago","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de CC da Educacion e o Deporte Universidad de Vigo Pontevedra Spain"}]},{"given":"Luis","family":"Casais","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de CC da Educacion e o Deporte Universidad de Vigo Pontevedra Spain"}]},{"given":"Eduardo","family":"Dominguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de CC da Educacion e o Deporte Universidad de Vigo Pontevedra Spain"}]},{"given":"Jaime","family":"Sampaio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Sciences University of Tr\u00e1s\u2010os\u2010Montes e Alto Douro Vila Real Portugal"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","first-page":"151","article-title":"The physiology of soccer: With special reference to intense intermittent exercise","volume":"619","author":"Bangsbo J.","year":"1994","journal-title":"Acta Physiologica Scandinavica"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","first-page":"233","article-title":"Analysis of the distances covered by first division Brazilian soccer players obtained with an automatic tracking method","volume":"6","author":"Barros R.
