We work in collaboration with Opta, an established football data provider, in order to precisely track player's actions on the pitch during their live games.
Each action tracked by Opta is then transformed into an amount of points the players earn in Coach Ligue 1.
Actions are sorted by categories matching the different type of actions that can happen on a football pitch:
Starting
Starting points are attributed when the player enters the pitch - it creates a basis for the points system.
Club
Club points are attributed to a player if the action happens for his club while he is on the pitch. For example, a player can get points if his team scores a goal even if that player was not directly involved in scoring the goal.
Offensive
Offensive points relate to scoring goals and attempting to score goals.
Possessive
Possessive points are attributed to players for wining or keeping possession of the ball for their team, including successfully passing to a teammate.
Defensive
Defensive points are attributed to players for intercepting, tackling, clearing their lines etc.
Goalkeeping
Goalkeeping points are attributed to goalkeepers depending on their performance in the game.
Errors
Errors made by players in a game amount to a reduction of their fantasy score. Errors include fouls, yellow and red cards, etc.
Our main goal when defining our scoring system was to ensure that all field positions could get an amazing score if they had an amazing performance. Yes, a defending midfielder deserves to earn a great score too! Therefore, it was important for us to calculate scores with the following logic.
A Goalkeeper will earn more points than a Forward by achieving a clean sheet
A Forward will earn more points than a Goalkeeper if his Club scored a goal
A Forward will earn 10 points when dribbling successfully
A Forward will earn 80 points when scoring a goal - since it is considered rarer and more difficult to achieve
E.g.: Missing a pass, missing a cross, missing a penalty, or getting a red card can all negatively impact an athlete's fantasy score
Below you can find all the modifiers for each action type based on the player's field position (GK, Defender / Midfielder / Striker).

The Player score is computed by adding every action score of a player in a match.
A card receives additional points on top of its Player score through its applicable performance bonuses.
A total of 2 different card performance bonuses exist:
Captain
The sum of all card's performance bonuses is applied on top of its Player score to get its Final score
Athlete score * (Sum of bonuses +1) = Final score
For example, with a Captain card in Légende rarity in a specific division that scored 100 Player score:
100 * (0,5 + 0,5 + 1) = 200
Légende Rarity in a specific division
