We can retrieve a team using its name : https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json/3/searchteams.php?t=Paris%20SG
But we can't retrieve it using its alternative names
https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json/3/searchteams.php?t=PSG returns null even though the team has multiple alternative names including PSG

we have tried it on the normal TheSportsDB.com site. The search also distinguishes whether you use "_" or spaces, it returns different results.

Search: PSG vs Montpellier
Search: PSG_vs_Montpellier
