The research will be about the amount of games soccer player have to participate in. Elite soccer

players have to play a lot of major tournaments on top of their normal season. FIFA World Cup,

UEFA Champions League, UEFA European Championship, Copa América, UEFA Europa

League and Africa Cup of Nation. These are major tournaments soccer players have to perform

good in, plus their league. There is also friendlies in the US as well. Players need time to rest and

be around their family. I believe there are a lot of variables to be resolved, one of them increase

subs during the game, instead of having a limit of 3 to reduce injuries.
