By marking every point at which the ball was played just before each of the Real Madrid shots during the Champions League season, we can get an overall picture of how they create successful attacks. Figure 7.12 is a risk map showing where the ball was played in the 15 seconds leading up to a shot from the 20m by 20m area in front of goal.

GPS South East Europe has a history of producing elite level players to either play professionally in European clubs (England, Holland, Italy, Greece, Cyprus and Slovakia) or get soccer scholarships to study at universities in the U.S. Our work experience and partnerships over the past decade with organizations such as Arsenal F.C. and Aspire Academy amongst others have led us to have a proven record of nurturing skilled young soccer players from South East Europe and beyond through our various coaching programs aiming to reach their full potential (based on their abilities) and progress with their professional careers. Given this background and under the guidance of GPS along with the co-operation of Valencia C.F we aspire to create the best International Academy in South East Europe. The International Academy in Athens will be housed in top notch facilities near the center of Athens one of the most historic and multicultural cities in the world. Our goal, with the help of GPS will be to deliver the best possible coaching program and create the competitive environment and opportunities for the young skilled players to explore their full potential and get recognized by scouts of European clubs to get a chance for a trial or continue their studies at a high level U.S University or even kick start their professional career within the industry of soccer or sport in general.
