Hi, hoping to change date format (from 'dateEvent') easily and quickly - is there a simple way of doing this without having to add much code?

just want to change US style to Euro style for results display on url , i.e. to 'D/M/Y

Not via the API but for example in PHP it would be a one liner to format a date.

no worries, I've seen now there's a
 'strDate'
section in the API for each sports match - which happens to be in UK date format, easy

another thing, do football FA cup game dates take extra time in coming to the API - for ex. my website shows date as 'None, None'

here's a link (bottom right of page, Desktop site only)

thanks, if anyone looks

Thats a good question! I'm not actually sure. I think we show the status of games in terms of the progress so it should work. Thew string for extra time should in theory be "ET" but its hard to tell without checking during a live match.
