FC Dallas wades deeper into the analytics revolution with the help of some new tech

FRISCO -- Every move FC Dallas players make against the Philadelphia Union on Saturday, every attack they break, every step they take, the coaching staff will be watching them.

A new GPS tracking system from STATSports has allowed Oscar Pareja and his staff to take their player monitoring to a level that rivals the obsessions of The Police. That's just fine with the players, who are able make modifications to their game based on the information they received about how far they ran, when they accelerated, how much time they spent at an outright sprint and how their heart rate changed during a game or training session.
