==== Description ====
The assignment is to create an intuitive visual tool that allows for ways to explain football tactics as it is usually done on a coaching board. On such a board the positions of players and the ball are indicated with magnets and the game play is explained by moving these magnets around. Playing patterns indicated on the board should be matched with recorded situations during actual games. In this way, for instance, the organization of a team when a match restarts with a corner can be compared to the intentions of the coach.

For this assignment real data is available. The data consists of:
  - spatio-temporal data: the position of the players and the ball
  - labeled events: annotated actions like "pass" and "dribble".
