In short
Open Studio and tap Spatial Analytics. The heatmap shows where Team A spent the match on the calibrated pitch, built from every player the scan tracked. Voronoi splits the pitch into the areas each side controlled, A against B, so you can see which team owned the middle and which one lived on the flanks. Density shows how compact the block was; switch between attacking and defending and compare the two sides. Everything stays on your device. iPhone and iPad.

Voronoi
The second tab splits the pitch into the areas each side controlled, team A against team B, so you can see which team owned the centre and which one lived on the flanks.
