Mean and standard deviations for the physical capacity measures (average 20-meter sprint speed and V̇O
2max normalized to LBM
2/3) and match-specific running performance variables (low-intensity running [LIR], moderate-intensity running [MIR], high-intensity running [HIR], sprint distance [Sprint], total distance covered [TD] and combined moderate- and high-intensity running [MIR + HIR]). 27 players completed the 20-meter sprint test, and 28 players completed the maximal incremental exercise test, providing V̇O
2max estimates. Match-specific running performance was available for all 31 players, totaling 619 matches (mean per player: 20.0 ± 11.3).
