The aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate effect of morning
and nocturnal soccer matches induced metabolic stress on plasma levels
of iron (Fe), copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn). Twenty male footballers
performed two soccer matches in morning and at night on different days.
Blood samples were taken before and tiller match. The levels of Fe, Zn
and Cu were measured through an atomic absorption spectrophotometry.
Metabolic stress was evaluated by altered malondialdehyde (MDA) levels
that measured using High Performance Liquid Chromatography. In morning
and at nocturnal soccer matches, levels of MDA (36\% and 27\%), Fe
(37.4\% and 38.9\%) and Cu (34.8\% and 26.8\%) were all increased in all
subjects, respectively. However, Zn level decreased -4.5 \% in morning
(n=10 subjects) and -9.4\% at nocturnal (n=12 subjects) soccer matches.
In addition, Cu/Zn ratio increased significantly 46.6\% in morning and
36.6\% at nocturnal soccer matches. Soccer match has significant effects
on levels of MDA, Fe and Cu but not Zn levels. The results of this study
showed that morning soccer match significantly alters levels of MDA and
Cu and Cu/Zn ratio compared to nocturnal soccer match.
