Description

A pass or carry that breaks one or more of the opponent’s defensive lines: the first line, the second-last line or the last line. Each line has a flag for whether it was broken and a type: through or around it. Every event has the same envelope fields, including time, frames, player, team, pitch coordinates, phase, team_possession_id, player_possession_id and confidence. See List Game Events. The fields below are specific to this type and are returned in attributes.
