A short video cut from the key moments, made for one team or one player with a single tap, ready for a Status or a story.

A prediction for everyone watching

When it's more than one match

Rematches, leagues, squads and a page for your team, all built from the games you score. Nothing to maintain between them.

Play again, or run a league

One tap at full time starts the next game, and the link in the group follows it. Or set up a best-of series or a round-robin, with the table and player figures worked out for you.

A line-up in one paste

Paste the group chat list once and every name is a tap for the rest of the match. Players can send their own names through an invite link you approve.

Keep the match for good

The link stays live for 30 days from the last update. Sign in at full time and save it, and it keeps working for good, free.

A team page, built from your matches

Save two matches for your side and your team page opens in one tap, with the results already on it. Nothing to fill in.

When should you use a live football scoreboard?

Any match where someone not on the pitch wants to follow the score.

Turf night with mates

Book the turf, create the scoreboard, drop the link in the group. Whoever can't make it follows from home.

Office tournament

Set the teams up once, run it as a league, and share each game link in Slack. The table sorts itself out while colleagues follow from their desks.

Family watching from far

Parents, siblings, friends in another city. Send the viewer link before kick-off and they follow live.

Training match

Track the score during a practice game. No fuss, no setup. Just create, play, and share the result link after.

Society or housing league

Running weekly matches in your building or colony? Each game gets its own link. Zero admin overhead.

Watching the coach update live

Scorer taps goals in real time, coach reviews the flow from the sideline or players' family follows on WhatsApp.

Need to know

Common questions about football scoreboards

Goals, cards, halftime and full-time: how football scoring works here.

How do I create a football scoreboard online?

Tap Create Match, choose Football, type both team names, pick 5-a-side, 7-a-side, 11-a-side or your own length, and set a short scoring password. Your live scoreboard is ready in under 30 seconds, with no account.

Guide: Score a football match live

Do I need to download an app to track football scores?

No. Score My Match runs in your phone browser, for you and for everyone watching. Open the site, create the match and start scoring.

Can I share live football scores on WhatsApp?

Yes. Every match gets a viewer link you drop into the WhatsApp group, and everyone who taps it follows every goal live, with no login and nothing to refresh.

Guide: Share a live score on WhatsApp

What football formats can I score?

5-a-side (45 minutes), 7-a-side (60), 11-a-side (90), or any length from 10 to 120 minutes. The clock runs on through both halves, an alarm tells you when the half is up, and a level knockout can go to extra time and penalties.

Can I track goals, yellow cards and red cards?

Yes, one tap each, with big buttons for both teams. The goal is on the board the moment you tap, and a player name is asked afterwards, never required.

Can I record assists, penalties and own goals?

Yes. Name a scorer and you can credit an assist, and any goal can be marked as a penalty or an own goal. All of it is optional, so a plain goal is still a single tap, and an own goal always counts for the side that benefits.

Can I record a penalty shootout?

Yes. When it is level at full time, tap Scored or Missed after each kick and viewers follow the shootout live, kick by kick, until the result reads something like "Falcons won 4-3 on penalties".

Guide: Penalty shootouts

Does it show who scored and when?

Yes. Viewers get a minute-by-minute timeline of every goal and card and a scorers list for each team, all built from your taps. Braces, hat-tricks and late winners are marked as they happen, and a second yellow shows as a sending-off on its own.

Guide: Key moments explained

Can we play a rematch or run a league?

Yes. Tap Play again at full time for the next game between the same two teams, with the head-to-head adding up as you go. Or set up a best-of series or a round-robin league once, and every fixture gets its own live link and a table that updates as results come in.

Guide: Run a round-robin league

Can I add a squad or line-up?

Yes, in one paste. Drop your group chat list into the line-up before kick-off and every player is a tap for the rest of the match. It is always optional, and a rematch carries both squads forward.

Guide: Line-ups from a WhatsApp list

Can players add their own names to the line-up?

Yes. Send them the line-up invite link, separate from the match link, and they send their own names in. Each one waits for your tap, so nothing anyone sends changes the match on its own.

Do I have to type the scorer name every time?

No. Names already used in the match, the line-up or the series come back as chips you tap, and typing a few letters narrows the row. Even a full squad is one tap in the seconds after a goal.

Can I see the top scorers across a whole tournament?

Yes. A series keeps a players table across every game: goals, assists, cards and games played, built from the matches themselves. Everyone in a line-up is on it from the start, so it shows the squad and not only the scorers.

How do I stop others from changing the score?

With the scoring password you set when you create the match. Only someone who has it can change the score, and the viewer link everyone else has is read-only.

Guide: Hand over the scoring

How long does the football scoreboard stay active?

Thirty days from the last score update, so it works all match and for weeks after. Once it is over, save it with one tap and it stays for good.

Guide: Save a match forever

Can the match go to extra time?

Yes. If a knockout game is level at full time you can play extra time, two short halves with the clock running on from the match, and still go to penalties after it if nobody has won.

Guide: Penalty shootouts

Can I record missed penalties, saves and sin bins?

Yes. A missed penalty is one tap, saved by the keeper unless you say it went wide, and a sin bin is a mark on the yellow card. Name the goalkeeper on the line-up and they are put first on a saved penalty and credited with a clean sheet.

Guide: Score a football match live

Can I put the live football score on my YouTube stream?

Yes. Link your YouTube, Twitch or Facebook stream on the match page for free, and viewers can jump from any goal to that moment in the recording. Clubs on Pro can also put broadcast graphics over the stream: a scorebug, lower-thirds and break cards.

Guide: Live scoreboard on a YouTube stream

Can I make a highlights video of the match?

Yes, free. Tap Make a reel on the match page and you get a short video cut from the goals and key moments, made for one team or one player, ready for a WhatsApp Status or an Instagram story.

Guide: Make a match reel

Can I post the result as a picture?

Yes. The result card is a picture of the final score in both teams' colours with the scorers on it, sized for a WhatsApp Status, Instagram or Facebook. Before kick-off the same button makes a fixture card instead.

Guide: Result and fixture cards

Is the football scoreboard free?

Yes. Scoring and sharing every local football match is free, with no credit card and no account. Pro is there for clubs that want extras, and is never needed to score.

How can you split players before creating the scoreboard?

Choose the number of people playing, count everyone from one, and let the random team generator split those numbers into two near-even sides. Nobody has to type names or build a roster. Review the draw for ability and positions, then create the live football scoreboard with the chosen team names.
