Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the offensive behaviors performed by the six national soccer teams participating of the finals on 2006 World Cup and 2004 and 2008 Euro Cup, using the sequential analysis by the Lag Method, in order to verify the different offensive game patterns. There were evaluated 647 offensive game sequences. It was used the Observational Methodology that allows us to understand the realized actions. The instrument used was the software SIDS & GSEQ. The data analysis was performed by the Lag Method, which allows us to establish the model sequences used by the teams. For the statistical analysis it was used the Chi‐squared (χ2) test. The results showed that the six teams analyzed presented distinct offensive game sequences.
