The aim of this study was to analyze the differences in test performance in power and vertical jump in football. 18 football players were divided into Group 1 (9) attackers and defenders (19.2 +/- 0.5 years; 68.3 +/- 2.8 kg; 177.5 +/- 2.4 cm) and Group 2 (9) external defenders and midfielders (G2 - 20.2 +/- 0.7 years; 70 +/- 1.5 kg; 174.4 +/- 1.8 cm) they underwent two assessments, and the Wingate test on day 1 and implementation of vertical jumps with (VJCM) and without countermovement on day 2 (VJWM). The statistical analysis from data was done using the Shapiro-wilk for normality, and t-student for comparison between groups, significance P<0,05, software SPSS 17. Results: No differences are found in wingate test and evaluation of vertical jumps. Conclusion: It was concluded there no performance differences between different positions.
