To score goals in football, a team needs to move forward on the pitch (Michalczyk, 2020) and there are various ways to do so. Depending on the game plan & philosophy; some teams prefer to play long balls from either wings or defense such as Burnley FC. Others, prefer to penetrate in depth with passes and outplay the opponent players such as Chelsea FC. To objectively & in an automated way evaluate how teams play penetrative passes compared to the number of times they had the potential to do so, I introduce the concept of Potential Penetrative Pass (P3) in this study.
