The Hidden Throw-in Rule 99% of Analysts Miss 🤖

[00:01] touches, even when their stats reading is good. And the worst part is they do not even understand why. That night, I checked almost all my analyses on touches, and it is neither luck nor a magic system. In this video,

[00:15] I will show you the exact rule that almost everyone ignores, and especially changes the interpretation, even for Look carefully at these analysis results. Here, reading is confirmed.

[00:29] around two. Okay, here again, it is confirmed with an index of 1.31. Know that the second match was neutralized, but the analysis is still clean. Here again, reading confirmed on both,

[00:43] and so on. You see, it is not so complicated. I will show you how all this is built. Okay, I will go back up here, and you will see I go up very slowly. Yes, there is one analysis that was not confirmed, and that is normal,

[00:56] but everything else passed because I applied exactly what I will explain to you today. And now, I will show you how to use African competition smartly because in these championships, evaluation models

[01:09] often make mistakes, and very few people know how to read this data correctly. I will explain, step by step, how to find relevant matches in Africa. Look here, in just one match, I managed to reach an index close to two. It is not huge by

[01:23] chance, but it is very solid when you know exactly what you are analyzing. So, do not watch this video for 30 seconds. Do not comment, it does not work. the end. Today, we talk only about touches, not

[01:39] corners, not shots, not goals, touches. And you will see that it is one of the most misunderstood indicators, even though it is one of the most logical. The mistake everyone makes with this type of

[01:52] option is to think that the match must be spectacular for it to work. Most people think it needs many chances, dangerous attacks, impressive actions, or even goals, but this is totally wrong. This type of option does not need

[02:07] a goal. It does not need a save from the goalkeeper. It does not even need a big chance. It only needs one thing, a simple contact with the ball. A touch is just that. And when you understand this difference, everything changes in how

[02:21] you read matches. This is exactly why many people make mistakes. Even when the match looks good, they watch the show while they should watch the statistics. The must-have app to analyze well. Now, let's talk about the tool. When it

[02:35] comes to analyzing matches correctly and avoiding random choices, I use only one app, SofaScore. Why SofaScore? Because this app gives us precise, clear, and above all, reliable data.

[02:48] And this is exactly what we need for this type of analysis. Once you open the app, here is what you do. First, go to today's matches. Then, choose a match that interests you. Then, click on a team. As an example, we will take this

[03:02] match here, the Rio match. I will show you exactly how to enter a The first thing to do is click on the logo of the first team. Then, we will also click on the logo of the second team because we must analyze both teams

[03:16] team because we must analyze both teams separately, and this is very important. its logo. Once I am here, I scroll to the right. Then, I click on statistics. Then, I scroll down slowly until I find the

[03:30] option throw-ins per game. Look carefully here, SofaScore shows that this team makes about 20 touches per match. This is already a very good base for the analysis. At this point, [music] we can already draw a first conclusion.

[03:43] Warning, when a team has around 20 touches per match or more, it is a positive signal for the overall analysis. But you must always consider both teams before making a decision. Now, I will give you a very important

[03:55] rule. Remember this. If both teams make at least 20 touches per match, then we read towards the higher threshold. But if both teams are around 15 or 16 touches per match, then we read towards the lower threshold.

[04:08] This rule is the base of the whole approach. We continue with the second I click now on the logo of the second team. Again, I go to statistics, [music] throw-ins per game.

[04:22] Here, we can see that this team makes about 24 touches per match. Now, let's understand well. The first team makes about 20 touches. The second team makes about 24 touches.

[04:35] The second team makes about 24 touches. 20 + 24 = 44 touches in total. But be careful, we never take this number as it is. We must always add or remove a safety margin. In this case, since we go towards a higher threshold,

[04:48] since we go towards a higher threshold, we remove 10 touches. 44 - 10 = 34 So, logically, we should read towards a total higher than 34 touches. Okay, everything is clear here. I go to the match analysis interface and

[05:02] look for the matches we discussed. Now, look carefully at what happens in the interface. I enter the match, click on the menu, then scroll down until I find the throw-ins section. The first option shown is over 41.5 throw-ins, and this

[05:17] is already a signal to be careful. Why is this important? Because 41.5 is almost exactly the total we calculated. This means the automatic values are consider carefully. In this case, we do not select the upper

[05:33] So, what do we do instead? We do the opposite. I take the We do the opposite. I take the calculator again. 44 + 10 = 54 throw-ins. And this time, we will focus on the lower threshold of 54 throw-ins.

[05:48] I scroll down in the options. And here it is, under 54 throw-ins with a stable evaluation. You can also consider under 52 or under 50 if you want a stricter margin. But if you want more balance, for

[06:02] example, under 54.5. For me, I will use the threshold under 53.5. Second example to confirm the method. Now, I will take another match so you understand even better. For example,

[06:16] this Toulouse match. I click on the first team's logo, go to statistics, then scroll down to throw-ins per game. Here, we see that this team makes around 16 throw-ins per match. I do the same for the second team. Again, statistics,

[06:30] scroll down, and we see this team also makes around 16 throw-ins per match. We makes around 16 throw-ins per match. We do the calculation. 16 + 16 = 32 When both teams are around 15 or 16

[06:43] throw-ins, we always focus on the lower threshold, as explained before. threshold, as explained before. Now, we add the safety margin. 32 + 10 = 42 throw-ins. So, in the interface, we will focus on

[06:55] the lower threshold of 42 throw-ins. I click on the match, go to the throw-ins options. Look carefully, the options start at 27 throw-ins, and this is a very good sign. I scroll down. And here, I find under 42 throw-ins with

[07:11] a stable evaluation. If you want a slightly stricter margin, you can take under 40.5 throw-ins. And if you want the most balanced approach, under 42 is still very solid. Personally, here, I use under 40.5

[07:24] Personally, here, I use under 40.5 throw-ins with an evaluation around 1.24 because it is stable and reliable. Very interesting case, African championships last point. And it is very important. In African championships, it

[07:37] often happens that both teams make only 12 or 13 touches per match. And this is exactly where the best analysis opportunities are. In this type of match, it is enough to focus on a lower threshold of 35 or 36

[07:51] These analyses are very reliable in most cases, and also the values are usually higher because automatic models evaluate these competitions less accurately. If you want more videos where I explain what others never show, subscribe now.

[08:06] In the next video, I will show you an even less known option, and yet even even less known option, and yet even more interesting when used correctly.
