The Football Association (FA) is the governing body for football in England, Scotland and Wales. It was established by Act of Parliament on 28 June 1993, with its first match being played at the Wembley Stadium on 24 May 1995.
The FA is responsible for regulating football in the UK and oversees all aspects of the game, including competition, refereeing, coaching, training, youth development, and more. The FA also sets national football codes and regulations for England, Scotland, and Wales.
There are several key statistics that help to understand the performance of a team or player. These include goals scored, assists given, tackles made, yellow cards taken, red cards received, penalty kicks taken, and many other metrics.
In addition to these statistics, there are also a number of key features of a footballer that can be analyzed. For example, the goal difference between teams is calculated based on the total number of goals scored by each team minus the total number of goals conceded by each team.
Overall, the statistics provided by the FA can provide valuable insights into the performance of a team or player, but they should always be used in conjunction with other data sources and analysis techniques.
