This study aims to evaluate and rank goalkeepers’ performances who competed in the Asian Cup Qatar 2023 according to some parameters. The sample size of the study was 22 goalkeepers. Data were obtained from the official website of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and Transfermarkt. Criteria used in the analysis to rank the performances of the goalkeepers were save percentage per match, number of catches and punches, and successful passes percentage per match. The criteria were weighted via the ranking method. Five steps of the WASPAS method among multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques were used to rank goalkeepers. According to the results of the analysis, GKs were ranked from 1 to 22 in terms of their performances, and the mean composite optimal value (Qi) was 0.696. The highest Qi value was 0.866, while the lowest was calculated as 0.310. According to the performance ranking, the top 3 GKs were determined as Rustam Yatimov (Tajikistan), Meshaal Barsham (Qatar), and Mathew Ryan (Australia). On the other hand, the lowest-ranked GKs were determined as Enando Ari (Indonesia), Zion Suzuki (Japan), and Rami Hamada (Palestine).

Kaleci Performanslarının WASPAS Yöntemiyle Sıralanması: AFC Asya Kupası Katar 2023

Öz

Bu çalışma, Asya Kupası Katar 2023’te mücadele eden kalecilerin performanslarını bazı parametrelere göre değerlendirmeyi ve sıralamayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 22 kaleci oluşturmuştur. Veriler Asya Futbol Konfederasyonu'nun (AFC) resmi internet sitesinden ve Transfermarkt'tan elde edilmiştir. Kalecilerin performanslarını sıralamak için analizde kullanılan kriterler maç başına kurtarış yüzdesi, yakalama ve yumruk sayısı ve maç başına başarılı pas yüzdesidir. Kriterler sıralama yöntemiyle ağırlıklandırılmıştır. Kalecilerin sıralamasında çok kriterli karar verme (ÇKKV) tekniklerinden WASPAS yönteminin beş adımı kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre kaleciler performanslarına göre 1'den 22'ye kadar sıralanmış olup ortalama bileşik optimal değeri (Qi) 0.696 olarak bulunmuştur. En yüksek Qi değeri 0.866 iken en düşük ise 0.310 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Performans sıralamasına göre ilk 3 kaleci, Rustam Yatimov (Tacikistan), Meshaal Barsham (Katar) ve Mathew Ryan (Avustralya) olarak belirlenmiştir. Öte yandan en düşük sıradaki kaleciler ise Enando Ari (Endonezya), Zion Suzuki (Japonya) ve Rami Hamada (Filistin) olarak tespit edilmiştir.
