Every on-ball event — pass, foul, corner, attempt, goal — arrives tagged with an x, y position on the pitch, and the ball glides between those real coordinates the way bet365's tracker does. The clock, score, lineups and stats come from the same feed, refreshed every 15 seconds while a match is on.

Straight from FIFA's own public match API — the Opta-derived feed (Stats Perform scouts at every venue) that powers FIFA.com's Match Centre, and the upstream source the paid sports-data resellers package up. No middleman, no key, no delay beyond FIFA's own.

Every clay illustration on this site (homes, stadiums, mascots, event icons), every team tagline and every player note is made by us. The live commentary lines are FIFA's own, verbatim. Squads come from Wikipedia, refreshed nightly.
