When running "from mplsoccer import VerticalPitch", I get:

Add a 3D pitch class.

I was using the Sbopen parser to fetch data from the Statsbomb database and encountered the following error:

My internet connection has been working smoothly, and previous calls to the Statsbomb dataset have been successful, but after this issue arose for the first time, I have been unable to fetch any data at all.

Hi Andrew,

Would it be possible to return an extra fields (arrays) with the positions and cards related to players in flatten_lineup function?

Thanks.

Add speedometer plots for showing average speeds of players from https://github.com/znstrider/speedo by @znstrider.

Hi Andrew,

I have the following error with your 1.0.7 version while getting a match (competitionId: 16, seasonId: 76):

from mplsoccer import Sbopen
parser = Sbopen(dataframe=True)
matches = parser.match(16, 76)

KeyError: 'match_date'

The stack trace shows that the line 409 is involved in the exception:

File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/mplsoccer/statsbomb.py", line 409, in _match_dataframe

Do you know what is wrong?

Thanks again :)

Cheers,
Paco.

Add a Delaunay triangulation method to the Pitch classes.

Inspiration:

• https://twitter.com/90_stat/status/1250238181364183040

Use scipy's Delaunay (https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.spatial.Delaunay.html) and follow a similar style to the voronoi method.

Some people have made the pitch markings dashed. Occasionally just the perimeter of the pitch. It would be fairly easy to add an argument to allow the linestyle to be changed to make this easier.

When I try to use the ax parameter in make_pizza() (e.g ax=axs[2]), I always get the following message:

"AttributeError: 'Axes' object has no attribute 'set_rorigin'"

This means I can only plot a pizza plot on another figure, not on a figure with multiple axes. I can add code examples if needed, but since I've tested this multiple times, I figured it isn't required.

Hi Andrew,

Using StatsBomb and your framework, I am trying to add the following information inside the animation function:

• Jersey_number of home and away players, but I cannot achieve it (I got the following exception: AttributeError: 'FuncAnimation' object has no attribute 'annotate')

pitch.annotate('?', (awayTeamXandYPosition.x[i], awayTeamXandYPosition.y[i]),
va='center', ha='center', color='white',
fontsize=15, ax=ax['pitch'])

• Update the plt title, but I got a similar exception.

https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.pyplot.title.html?highlight=title#matplotlib.pyplot.title

Could you help me?

Thank you!

Cheers,
Paco.

A direction play/attack arrow is often displayed on pitches.

Add an example to the gallery of ways of doing this. The examples are found here:

Hi,

when I create a simple radar cart:

from mplsoccer.radar_chart import Radar

## parameter names
params = ['xAssist', 'Key Passes', 'Crosses Into Box', 'Cross Completion %', 'Deep Completions',
          'Progressive Passes', 'Prog. Pass Accuracy', 'Dribbles', 'Progressive Runs',
          'PADJ Interceptions', 'Succ. Def. Actions', 'Def Duel Win %']

## range values
ranges = [(0.0, 0.15), (0.0, 0.67), (0.06, 6.3), (19.51, 50.0), (0.35, 1.61),
          (6.45, 11.94), (62.9, 79.4), (0.43, 4.08), (0.6, 2.33),
          (4.74, 7.2), (8.59, 12.48), (50.66, 66.67)]

min_range = [0.0,0.0,0.06,19.51,0.35,6.45,62.9,0.43,0.6,4.74,8.59,50.66]
max_range = [0.15, 0.67, 6.3, 50.0,1.61,11.94,79.4,4.08,2.33,7.2,12.48,66.67]

## parameter value
values = [0.11, 0.53, 0.70, 27.66, 1.05, 6.84, 84.62, 4.56, 2.22, 5.93, 8.88, 64.29]


## instantiate object
radar = Radar(params, min_range, max_range)

fig, ax = radar.setup_axis()  # format axis as a radar
rings_inner = radar.draw_circles(ax=ax, facecolor='#ffffff', edgecolor='#000000')  # draw circles
radar_output = radar.draw_radar(values, ax=ax,
                                kwargs_radar={'facecolor': '#709775','alpha': 0.8},
                                kwargs_rings={'facecolor': '#709775', 'alpha':0.8})  # draw the radar

range_labels = radar.draw_range_labels(ax=ax, fontsize=8)
param_labels = radar.draw_param_labels(ax=ax, fontsize=12, **{'color':'#ffffff'})  # draw the param labels

I get the following visualization where (depending on the ring) the color of the polygon is lighter or darker green:

Is there a way to avoid the changing colors of the polygon for every ring?

Replace setup with pyproject.toml and setup.cfg. Add version to init. Use flit or hatch:

https://flit.pypa.io/en/latest/index.html#
https://hatch.pypa.io/latest/

The docs are not building for py_pizza examples when some of the linewidth arguments are zero. For example:

The docs error is:
ValueError: At least one value in the dash list must be positive

This seems to be related to:
matplotlib/matplotlib#8821

Add an example of visualizing a stream of event data.

Adding pitch_alpha would allow more effects like glowing pitch lines (see https://github.com/dhaitz/mplcyberpunk). This would require changing the six yard box and penalty area to lines instead of rectangles. This is because the boxes currently overlap with the pitch sidelines and the boxes overlap and with transparency the overlap would be a darker colour.

Hello

I'm trying to run this basic example in the docs:

from mplsoccer.pitch import Pitch
pitch = Pitch(pitch_color='grass', line_color='white', stripe=True)
fig, ax = pitch.draw()

But when I run the above nothing shows up, I tried creating a plot with matplotlib and that showed up with no issues.

I am on MacOS 10.15.6 running python 3.8.6.

Any help would be appreciated.

Add drawing of zone lines using zone (boolean) keyword in Pitch classes.
Add a heatmap method for the zones.

Inspiration:

• https://spielverlagerung.com/glossary/pitch-zones/zone-14/

The positions are already calculated via _juego_de_posicion. This could be done using a similar style to the _draw_juego_de_posicion/ bin_statistic_positional methods (only needs one set of xedges/ yedges).

There is a problem when mplsoccer is combined with Streamlit. The amount of memory keeps increasing when creating new charts. It seems to be caused by the custom handlers.

Is there a better way of doing this?

Greetings! This is not an issue but maybe just a comment or quick question. On the heatmap examples, one uses brighter colors for high values...

...whereas the next features brighter colors for lower values.

Is there a contradicton, or maybe I'm missing something here? Normally I would asume that, in a heatmap, "darker" always means "higher". Thanks in advance and congratulations for mplsoccer, a very useful tool.

Hi,

I am plotting three pitches side by side using pitch.grid() and creating a heatmap on each one with something like pitch.heatmap(bin_stat_i, axs[i], cmap='Reds', edgecolors='#f9f9f9'), and the pitch.label_heatmap() function as well.

The numeric labels are comparable across pitches, but the colors are not, they each use their own scale based on the min and max of the individual heatmap. Is there a way for the three to use the same colour scale?

Thank you for any help!

Matplotlib 3.6 changed the argument transOffset to offset_transform:
matplotlib/matplotlib#21965

With the current code the following error occurs when creating the docs:
TypeError: HandlerFootball.create_collection() got an unexpected keyword argument 'offset_transform'.

This code needs to be changed for compatibility with Matplotlib 3.6:

Hi - The easy and pragmatic way of creating radar charts is quite impressive!

So far, I am missing two features:

1. Lines from the param labels to the center like this one here:
   
2. Option to compare more than 2 (players) within one radar char

Hi,
Some of my old code is not working anymore.
From the changelog I found that this has now changed.
I looked over the documentation, however I do just want to load in some local statsbomb files.

Is this still possible, or can I only work with the online API from now?

Hi Andrew,

I am trying to create a video with your sample code (plot_animation.py):

anim.save('example.mp4', dpi=150, fps=25,
extra_args=['-vcodec', 'libx264'],
savefig_kwargs={'pad_inches':0, 'facecolor':'#457E29'})

As you advanced in your comments, I had problems to download ffmpeg (in this case, using brew), so I found this web site to download the static executable:

https://evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/

After that, my code can generate the video with the previous code, but there are too many overlapping between every animation (the image 1 contains the figures of the image 0, the image 2 contains the figures of the image 1, etcetera)

Do you know how to solve that?

Thank you.

It might be possible to combine py_pizza into radar to make it more modular, but maintain py_pizza for backward compatibility.

Hi Andrew:

Hi,

There is a bug in Statsbomb.py (function "read_lineup") in the following line:

match_id = os.path.basename(path_or_buf[:-5])

It should be:

match_id = os.path.basename(path_or_buf)[:-5]

The current exception is "TypeError: 'PosixPath' object is not subscriptable"

My Python version is 3.7.3

Thank you!

Add a scatter density method to the Pitch classes.

Inspiration:

• https://twitter.com/etmckinley/status/1169256582145703937
• https://github.com/LKremer/ggpointdensity

In principle, this could be added by using the c and cmap arguments of Axes.scatter. Calculating the density via kernel density estimation and using this as the c argument.

Hello,
I've seen an issue where somebody else has also asked this, and the answer was that it is left to right. Is this also the case for StatsBomb event data?

Sorry for not knowing and disturbing you, it's only that I'm scared of creating a heatmap that is distorted due to attacking direction.

Add an example for displaying a cmap using markers, as sometimes it's preferred to a color bar.

It would be good to have a video embedded in the docs.

Hi,

It would need to account for the unequal aspect ratio of some of the pitches (e.g. opta, wyscout and metricasports). See the _init_circles_and_arcs_equal_aspect method. What units should this be in (meters)?
