Simulates a football competition of 4 teams based on strength.
Be sure to install .Net Core 2.0 Runtime.
Clone the repository and run the console application via this command
dotnet .\App\FM.Simulator.dll
Answer the question and it will run x simulations of a competition. The competition consists of 4 teams:
Team | Strength | Agggression |
---|---|---|
Ajax | 100 | 10 |
Feyenoord | 100 | 40 |
PSV | 100 | 30 |
FC Utrecht | 100 | 20 |
The followoing result is shown for each simulation:
- Match events
- Final results of all 6 matches
- Final standing
The final result show:
- Match with the highest scoring.
- Number of times each team became champion
- Top 10 of most occuring score.
The simulator takes the team strength into account when calculating a match. The team aggression is used which team will get a yellow/ red card. The following steps are executed per simulation
-
Create a new competition
-
Add 4 teams to the competition
-
Generate a single schedule that produces 6 matches. Teams play 3 matches, the home/ away team is random.
-
Simulate each match
- Determine match length: 90 minutes + 2-5 minutes of injury time
- For each minute pick a random 'match event' based on this table and the team strength or aggression (3rd column):
Event Probability Based on Yellow card 3 Team agression Red card 1 Team agression Goal 2 Team strength Injury 1 Team strength (todo: move to opponent agression) Nothing 93 - Example: In the 4rd minute a goal event is simulated. Both team strengths are taken into account to determine which teams scores.
- After the match is finished, the competition standing is updated.
- After all 6 matched are played, the final position is calculated, based on:
- Most Points
- Most Goal difference (NL: doelsaldo)
- Most Goals scored
- Result between the 2 teams If all is the same, the position will be equal. This simulator doesn't support 3 or more teams to finish equal.
- Match results are printed.
- Final competition standing is printed.
If you run the simulation a 1000 times, the expectation is that each team becomes champion +/- 250 times (in case all teams have equal strength).
dotnet .\App\FM.Simulator.dll --teamStrengths 500,100,1,10
This translates to Ajax (500), Feyenoord (100), PSV (1), FC Utrecht (10)
