Shot Maps

What it shows

Every shot in the match, placed where it was struck and sized by expected goals — the chance an average finisher scores from that spot. Filled circles are goals, hollow ones are shots that weren't, and dashed outlines were blocked. A team can win the shot count and lose the map.

Home attacks right and away attacks left, so the two teams' chances sit at opposite ends the way you'd watch the match. Totals underneath break out shots, shots on target, goals, xG, xG per shot and post-shot xG — and every shot is also available as a plain table.

Leagues covered

MLS, NWSL, USL Championship, USL League One, MLS Next Pro and USL Super League.

Pro leagues only: these are real logged shot locations, so the amateur and youth pyramid isn't here — we don't have shot data for those, and we'd rather show nothing than draw something we guessed.

Where the numbers come from

Shot locations, expected goals and post-shot expected goals come from American Soccer Analysis. Expected goals estimates the scoring chance of a shot from its location and type. Post-shot xG additionally accounts for where the shot ended up, so it only exists for shots on target. See the methodology & disclaimer.
