Euro 2024 kicks off this evening, so we set out simulation engine the task of predicting it. Using information about squads, tactics, and style to simulate the tournament 1000s of times, it thinks 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England, 🇫🇷 France and 🇩🇪 Germany have the best chance of success. #euro2024

I just wanted to send this farewell message to all Manchester United supporters.

I would like to express my unwavering gratitude and appreciation for the love from the last 12 years. We’ve achieved a lot since my dear Sir Alex Ferguson brought me to this club. I took incredible pride everytime I pulled on this shirt, to lead the team, to represent this institution, the biggest club in the world was an honour only bestows upon a few lucky footballers.

It’s been an unforgettable and successful period since I came here. I didn’t think from leaving Madrid as a young boy we would achieve what we did together.

Now, it’s the right time to undertake a new challenge, to push myself again in new surroundings.

Manchester will always be in my heart, Manchester has shaped me and will never leave me.

We’ve seen it all. 🤘🏼❤️

This increases accessibility of estimated off-ball downstream analytics tasks (e.g., physical player metrics, pitch control calculations, player heatmaps) to researchers and clubs who are only able to access event data.

Fascinating! Informed decision making in sport using both human knowledge and the power of AI models seems an exciting way forward and this feels like a new AI staff member that can collate and present insightful reports quickly and have discussions regarding these results.
