INTRODUCTION Rare earth elements (REEs) include the 4f-block lanthanide series (atomic number 57–70) and three d-block elements: lutetium, scandium and yttrium (Cheisson & Schelter, 2019). With broad applications in electronic components, catalysts, lasers, glass, medicine and permanent magnets, REEs are becoming increasingly important to the global economy, with global production of REEs growing from 100,000 metric tonnes in 2015 to 300,000 metric tonnes in 2022 (Liu et al., 2023).

The first xG models in football were based solely on the location of the shot, so that is where I started. I began investigating the positional dependence of xG with another simple heatmap. By splitting the pitch into a grid, finding each shot, and measuring the proportion of shots that resulted in a goal. We get this: Once again, the results are as you would expect: shooting from a central area, and close to the endzone, is most likely to result in a goal.
