Manchester City is using cloud technology for their top-of-the-table clash against Liverpool. The Premier League champions are using SAP Challenger Insights to plan set-pieces and tactical changes before making substitutions. 

 

City skipper Vincent Kompany said: “The players love using SAP Challenger Insights; it gets me ready for the game and gives me a greater understanding about the players I’ll be coming up against,” 

 

Sergio Aguero, City’s all-time record goal scorer, added: “SAP Challenger Insights helps bring the coaches’ instructions to life so I have a constant reminder of how we are approaching each different game.”

 

Bernd Leukert, member of the executive board of SAP SE, products & innovation, said: “The partnership between Manchester City and SAP continues to push the boundaries of what is possible with technology,” said Bernd Leukert, member of the executive board of SAP SE, products & innovation.

 

“As one of the first teams in the English Premier League to bring data onto the touchlines, the club can now access the most complete view of an opponent’s setup during a match to optimise training, preparation and performance.”
