Great job!
Just my own opinion:
- i don’t like logo event, i prefer two teams names are aligned
- in the stats, i would change the green color for the home team, i would put something like blue or black, if the away team remains red.
It’s just my own graphical opinion, anyway great job

- Backend sync with API-Football Player ID's (This will mean we can support a lot more API-Football features going forward).

- Manual adding of event stats now possible.

Let me know of any event stat types for different sports such as baskeball, ice hockey, NFL, Baseball ect.

Regarding substitutions, now we can add them on the timeline and the line-ups. Zag, what do you think that only add them on the timeline and keep line-ups with only the starting one? I think it will be more accurated

thoughts?

Really like the new sync tool for lineups/match stats.

Small req from me, could we pass through squad number from the lineup anywhere?

Also, are the lineups available over the api?

Ha! you are quick to notice

Just literally finished it now. The biggest issue is going to be matching APIfootball names to our DB as they differ and their API is name lookup only...

For that reason, you can now edit any players APIFootballID. If its missing please edit the player by adding their ID and it should sync. The lineup sync page will tell you the player ID. I've tried to auto match over 3,000 but I have a feeling many are missing.

Yes lineup database already has strSubstitute field. I just need to show it off properly. Will look at different ideas.

- Extended the line-up feature to all team sports.
- Extended the event stats to all team sports

I've made a start on the NFL superbowl line-ups as a result.

- Updated the feed page to show previews of specific artwork instead of the default badge or thumb all the time. Hopefully artwork should show properly from now on here.

Nice idea!

I have seen that some edits are not displaying the art properly (even fanart) or displayed in blank:

- event score
- event highlights
- player former team
- player birth location
- player new
- league trophy
- team formed year
- team country

Yeh they just need icons really and I can fix, any contributions welcome

EDIT: Added a few more (Score, Highlights, Former Team)

EDIT2: I wonder if we should make them green so they differentiate from the real artwork?

- Did some major speedups on the event pages where I found the Head 2 Head SQL was causing issues. You can now click on the link to show H2H data separately.

Do we have a solution for adding timeline events for first team players playing in U21 squads? I.e Arsenal U21 are fielding 3 first team players tonight recovering from injury

Interesting one... I guess just add the players, as if they play in the first team then they should be added.

Big news for basketball fans... I've been working on the backend all week, adding the new API-Basketball support for automated scores and schedules. We've purchased the professional plan so should support loads of different leagues and competitions going forward.

- Schedules is complete for NBA and NCAA, German BBL, French and Spanish

Other leagues will follow as I update the internal ID for each team to match the API-Basketball site.

If anyone wants to help out there are missing teams in many basketball leagues still with missing players, data and artwork.

I'm also still working on livescores for V2 of the API and the front page. Its quite hard with all the changes in schedule at the moment but I will get there I hope in the next few days.
