###### Abstract  
The aim of this study was to explore the anthropometric profile and evaluate physical fitness variables of the members of the Chile women's national football team based on their playing positions. Fifty football players participated in this study, which was carried out during the period of training for the France 2019 Women's World Cup and the Japan 2020 Olympic Games. Body composition and physical condition (muscular strength, sprint, agility, and aerobic fitness) were assessed. The goalkeepers showed greater weight (\(p<0.001\)), height (\(p=0.002\)), and %Fat (\(p=0.010\)) compared to the rest of the playing positions. There were also differences between positions in relative strength (RS) (\(p=0.001\)), running speed at 10 and 30 m (T10 and T30, respectively), agility (AGI) (\(p<0.001\)), and yo-yo test (MYFR1) (\(p<0.001\)). RS, T10, T30, and countermovement jump (CM) were significantly correlated (\(p\leq 0.05\)) with anthropometric variables (\(p\leq 0.05\)). MYYR1 was also significantly correlated with anthropometric variables (\(p\leq 0.05\)). In conclusion, goalkeepers show greater weight and height, as well as worse results in MYYR1, AGI, T10, T30, and RS compared to the rest of the players. Forwards present better performance in running speed and agility. Better performance in physical condition is associated with better body composition values (greater muscle mass and lower fat mass). Greater relative strength indicates greater performance in explosive actions. Therefore, to meet the demands of high competition, it is important to establish ideal profiles in anthropometry and physical condition variables based on the playing position. physical performance; soccer; anthropometric profile; women's football 2021 2020 19 February 2021 24 February  
each player covers different distances according to her position [7]. In the analysis of the France 2019 World Cup, the average total distance covered was 5362 m for goalkeepers, 10,369 m for defenders, 11,210 m for midfielders, and 10,979 m for forwards. Regarding the intensity of the distances covered, for the medium-high range (19-23 km/h) the distances covered according to the playing position was 253 m for defenders, 313 m for midfielders, and 360 m for forwards [5]. In this sense, it has been reported that the amount of physical performance, effort intensity, and movement patterns are different depending on the playing position [8]. Anthropometry is the measurement methodology of the human body. Its objective is to quantify the morphological features and to provide an objective image of the growth status of the person. Morphological characteristics appear to be very important for selection in most sports disciplines, including European football. For sports disciplines such as European football, the morphological structure that affects sports performance is already known [9]. There are differences in body composition between periods of the season (higher values of adipose tissue in the transition period vs. the competition period) [10] as well as differences in anthropometric values between positions of game [11]. A study conducted with young male players reported that goalkeepers have statistically significantly higher body height and humerus width compared to players who play in other team positions and more weight compared to players who play in the middle and forward positions. Defense players have statistically significantly higher body weight than middle players. In the rest of the anthropometric measures and morphological components, there are no statistically significant differences between the players who play in different positions on the team [12]. Therefore, it seems that the morphological characteristics of top-level football players seem to be of great interest to some authors with the aim of finding the best morphological somatotype for particular levels of competition and player positions, although the specification depends on the development of technique and tactics [13].
