Anticipation and visual search behavior in expert soccer goalkeepers

Article Abstract:

A novel methodological approach to examine the visual search behaviors employed by expert goalkeepers during simulated penalty kick situation in soccer is presented. It is shown that the successful experts were more accurate in predicting the height and direction of the penalty kick, waited longer before initiating a response and appeared to spend longer periods of time fixating on the non-kicking leg compared with the non successful experts.
