Outcome shot map

A colored-scatter “shot map” for set pieces: every corner/free-kick delivery, plotted where the outcome happened and colored by what that outcome was – short corner, direct shot, second-phase shot, aerial duel (“50/50”), cleared, or which team won the first touch. Goals get a ring around the marker.

wa_setpieces.core.outcomes builds this on top of wa_setpieces.core.phases, adding short-corner detection (a short pass along the byline rather than a cross – inferred from delivery distance, since a corner starts right at the corner arc already) and aerial-duel detection (typeId 44, a contested header – football’s “50/50”).

Free kicks spread across the whole pitch, not just the box – they’re taken from wherever the foul was:

fk_outcomes = delivery_outcomes(events, "free_kick")
fig, ax = plot_set_piece_outcomes(fk_outcomes, title="Free-kick outcomes")
