Data methodology

Collection and matching

Match schedules are imported from configured football data and reference sources. Video candidates are collected from configured official sources, then matched to a club, opponent, date and video format.

A match and video can be recorded as not_found when a configured search has no acceptable result. This status means no result was found at that time, not that no video exists anywhere.

Updates

The archive is refreshed through the collection pipeline. Corrections and manually selected pages are handled separately from automated extraction so that their provenance remains visible.
