This study compared the effects of 2 days of divergent CHO intake on physical and cognitive performance during a simulated soccer match protocol. Using a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design, 15 female field-based intermittent team sport players consumed either a high CHO diet (6\u00a0g\u00b7kg body mass [BM]\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    \u00b7day\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    ; HIGH) or an isocaloric moderate CHO diet (3\u00a0g\u00b7kg BM\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    \u00b7day\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    ; MOD) for 2 days after completing a standardized (\u223c35\u00a0min) intermittent exercise protocol.
