I believe that specific fitness training is fundamental for success in any sport, soccer is a great example.
Two recent studies from Norway (world leaders in the field of soccer research) show that by adding 4 * 4min interval aerobic/soccer training to regular soccer practices, many performance variables improve i.e. distance covered on the pitch, aerobic endurance and ability to work at higher heart rate. Cue to coaches: adding fitness based soccer exercises to your team training will make them perform better on the pitch.
