Football is no longer just about goals and final results. Every touch, pass or shot can be important. With our new feature, you'll get a whole new perspective on matches - live and detailed down to the level of each individual player.

A few weeks ago, we introduced improved team match statistics in Flashscore. Now we're going even further - down to the details of every player who appears on the pitch.

Details and context

We offer a really in-depth look at the performances of football players. From the opening whistle, we continuously record and update all the action.

We've organised the statistics into seven thematic categories to make it easier to browse the data. First, the main stats as a selection of interesting numbers from each area, and then the categories themselves: shots, attack, passes, defence, goalkeeping and general.

Basic numbers? Of course. But let's go further. For each of the categories mentioned above, we offer advanced statistics that reveal the players' performance in much more detail and context: expected goals, successful dribbles, accurate crosses, errors leading to goals, goals prevented, expected assists and much more.

You can also check out all this data just for one specific player. You just need to click on the name and you will immediately see detailed match statistics like rating, shots, passes and defensive metrics.

We don't want you to get lost in the numbers, so we highlight the best performances in each statistic in colour on the page. In the app, we directly present the top three players who dominate the category.

And if you don't know the names of some metrics (xGOT, xA...) - no problem. You can read the explanation.

View game details directly

Player data has its place in the match details, where you're used to seeing individual match events, starting squads or general statistics. This is where you'll find the new tab. For specific leagues, statistics are currently available for matches in the main European leagues (Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga + Champions League, Europa League and Czech League). A specific example can be found here.

But it doesn't stop there. We will gradually extend our coverage to other leagues, with the aim of covering all of them, for which we already show player ratings.

The new feature applies to both the website and the Android and iOS apps.
