The fact that the Greek championship is one of the slowest in Europe does not need to be a football expert to understand it. Just a little time on the weekend in front of the TV and the corresponding zapping in order to compare a Super League match with someone else, not necessarily from the Premier League, but even with someone in the Netherlands or Belgium.
This finding was now confirmed by the Football Observatory (CIES Football Observatory), which analyzed the data in 26 leagues worldwide in order to determine the average sprint distance (> 7.0 m / s or 25.2 km / h) .
According to the survey, which involved 492 teams from around the world, only five of them sprinted for more than 2 kilometers per race, with Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds at the top (2.23 km).
As for our teams, in 26th place is AEK (1.54 km), which is the fastest in the Greek championship. On the contrary, the slowest team is Panaitolikos, as its players have an average sprint of 1.15 km per game, as a result of which it is in 5th place in the relevant table. In the first, with only 1.04 km, is Metalist. Beyond that, behind Leeds are the Swiss Young Boys (2.21 km), the Dutch Kampur (2.06 km), the Championship champion Bournemouth (2.01 km), and the Bilbao with 1.99 km From the big leagues, Milan (1.91 km) has the lead in Serie A, Monaco (1.89 km) in Ligue 1 and Bayern (1.85 km) in the Bundesliga.
In the national championships, the Super League is in 24th place with an average speed of 1.37 km, followed by the 2nd category of Germany (1.37 km), the 1st of Ukraine (1.35 km) and the 1st of Scotland with 1.26 km. It is worth noting that the Greek championship is slower than the 2nd category of Italy (1.46 km) and France (1.41 km), as well as the MLS in USA that has m.o. 1.48 km. At the top is the Swiss with 1.70 km, while the 5th group is completed by LaLiga (1.68 km), the Jupiter League in Belgium with 1.65 km, the Premier League (1.65 km) and Serie A (1.64 km). The Bundesliga is the last of the major leagues with an average of 1.47 km
