Recently, there has been an increasing number of attempts to analyze sport activities through the combination of sports science and ICT technology.In the case of soccer, several leading companies have already developed tracking techniques for players to automatically acquire sports analysis data.However, the automatic extraction of event data for analyzing the sports games is limited to the level of academic research, and the field still depends on the manual work of professional analysts.This paper proposes a soccer event recognition technology based on pattern matching.As can be seen from the experimental results, it is possible to recognize various events much more accurately than the event recognition technology at academic research level.
