Heat stress may contribute to decreased match performance when football is played in extreme heat. This study evaluated activity patterns and thermal responses of players during soccer matches played in different environmental conditions. Non‐acclimatized soccer players (n=11, 20±2 years) played two matches in conditions of moderate heat (MH) and high heat (HH) index. Core temperature (Tc) and physical performance were measured using a telemetric sensor and a global positioning system…

Physiological Responses and Physical Performance during Football in the Heat
TLDR
Total game distance and especially high intensity running were lower during a football game in the heat, but these changes were not directly related to the absolute or relative changes in core or muscle temperature.
Does environmental heat stress impact physical and technical match-play characteristics in football?
ABSTRACT Purpose: To examine the impact of environmental heat stress conditions on physical and technical football match-play characteristics. Method: Data from 42 matches of 9 outfields,…
The effect of a cold environment on physical activity profiles in elite soccer match-play.
TLDR
The present findings generally suggest that physical performance in professional soccer does not decrease in cold temperatures.
Brief in-play cooling breaks reduce thermal strain during football in hot conditions.
Thermal, physiological and perceptual strain mediate alterations in match-play tennis under heat stress
TLDR
Adjustments in match-play tennis characteristics under severe heat stress appear to represent a behavioural strategy adopted to minimise or offset the sensation of environmental conditions being rated as difficult.
Analysis of motor performance of professional soccer players in different environmental conditions
Introduction. Air temperature and humidity affect the motor activity of soccer players during matches. Analysis of soccer players’ motor activity in extreme environmental conditions enables optimal…
The Application of Heat Stress to Team Sports: Football/Soccer, Australian Football and Rugby
This chapter addresses how an added heat stress affects football, Australian football and rugby players during both training and competition. Although these sports are typically played in the cooler…
Physical activity profile of 2014 FIFA World Cup players, with regard to different ranges of air temperature and relative humidity
TLDR
Results presented indicate that the conditions most comfortable for physical activity on the part of players occur at 22 °C, and with relative humidity under 60 %.
The Effect of Heat Stress on Measures of Running Performance and Heart Rate Responses During A Competitive Season in Male Soccer Players.
TLDR
Results indicate that HS resulted in increased LIR and %HR≥85, while HIR was maintained.
Hot and Hypoxic Environments Inhibit Simulated Soccer Performance and Exacerbate Performance Decrements When Combined
TLDR
The hot, hypoxic, and hot-hypoxic environments impaired physical performance during iSPT, and future interventions should address the increases in TS and body temperatures, to attenuate these decrements on soccer performance.

Hydration and sweating responses to hot‐weather football competition
TLDR
The results indicate that substantial sweat water and electrolyte losses can occur during match play in hot conditions and a substantial water and sodium deficit can occur in many players even when water or sports drink is freely available.
Physical and metabolic demands of training and match-play in the elite football player
TLDR
There are major individual differences in the physical demands of players during a game related to physical capacity and tactical role in the team, and these differences should be taken into account when planning the training and nutritional strategies of top-class players, who require a significant energy intake during a week.
Physical demands during an elite female soccer game: importance of training status.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that all players have high HR throughout a competitive game with periods of near-maximal values, the distance covered by HIR during match play is closely related to the physical capacity, and the Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test can be used as an indicator of the physical match performance of elite female players.
Thermoregulatory observations in soccer match play: professional and recreational level applications using an intestinal pill system to measure core temperature
TLDR
Intestinal temperature proved a useful method of recording core temperature during soccer match play and assisted in the measurement of alterations in thermoregulatory variables in response to both professional and recreational level soccer matches; however, technological limitations still restrict the wider application of this method, especially at a competitive level.
The rate of heat storage mediates an anticipatory reduction in exercise intensity during cycling at a fixed rating of perceived exertion
TLDR
The regulation of exercise intensity in hot environments when exercise is performed at a predetermined, fixed subjective rating of perceived exertion (RPE) is controlled by an initial afferent feedback regarding the rate of heat storage, which is used to regulate exercise intensity and hence the rateof heat storage for the remainder of the anticipated exercise bout.
Water and electrolyte needs for football training and match-play
TLDR
The generalization that a body mass reduction equivalent to 2% should be the acceptable limit of sweat losses seems reasonable, given that this amount, or more, of sweat loss reflected in body mass loss is a common experience for some players.
Match performance of high-standard soccer players with special reference to development of fatigue
TLDR
Top-class soccer players performed more high-intensity running during a game and were better at the Yo-Yo test than moderate professional players; fatigue occurred towards the end of matches as well as temporarily during the game, independently of competitive standard and of team position; defenders covered a shorter distance in high- intensity running than players in other playing positions.
Physiological responses to laboratory-based soccer-specific intermittent and continuous exercise
TLDR
Football-specific intermittent exercise did not increase the demands placed on the aerobic energy systems compared to continuous exercise performed at the same average speed, although the results indicate that anaerobic energy provision is more important during intermittent than during continuous exercise at thesame average speed.
Applied Physiology of Soccer
TLDR
Soccer players of national and international standard have a maximal aerobic power of around 60 to 65 ml/kg/min, an above average anaerobic alactacid power, and a greater buffer capacity and muscle strength compared with untrained controls, yet seem to be less flexible.
Physiological Systems and Their Responses to Conditions of Heat and Cold
TLDR
The effects of both heat stress and cold stress on physiologic responses and exercise capabilities are examined, and the extent to which water and electrolyte imbalances affect temperature regulation and exercise performance is considered.
