Soccermetrics Connect API

Info:Soccer Analytics API for datasets captured under the Marcotti-Summary data schema.
Author:Howard Hamilton of Soccermetrics Research.

This is the official documentation of the Marcotti-Summary API – part of the Soccermetrics API collection.

The Soccermetrics APIs are sports modeling and analytics layers on top of in-match data sources at various levels of complexity. We deliver advanced match analysis of data in an accessible form and make it easier for end-users to create their own customized analysis tools on sports data.

Marcotti-Summary (formerly FMRD-Summary) is shorthand for the Football Match Result and Summary Database. It is a schema that captures historical data about a football (soccer) match plus summary in-match statistics on participating players. The schema is designed to be compatible with the MCFC Analytics initiative sponsored by Manchester City Football Club and Opta Sports.

Note

The Marcotti-Summary data schema and API are neither associated with nor endorsed by Opta Sports, Manchester City Football Club, or any other sports data company or football club.
