A working fork of https://worldcup.cole.ws for 2026!

Nice site! It's super nice to have everything presented dashboard-style so I can see what's going on.

A couple of issues:

The vertical alignment of the matches in the tournament stage is bugged for me.
Sometimes, the detail pop-up that appears on hover won't go away. I can't work out what triggers the bug though.

For those interested https://www.football-data.org provides neat API.

Is that recommendation from experience?

I'm after a new source of football information (primarily for the EPL) now that worldfootball have absolutely butchered their website and made scraping impossible. I've looked at a whole bunch of places that purport to provide football information (including football-data.org - definitely the current front-runner) but none of them have been super convincing (and one of them had a list of "top goalers" which made me close that tab pretty damn quick.)

  Yup, I have been using it for the past year or so and it's been solid even in the free tier, though only for quick checkups of upcoming fixtures, nothing fancy.

- One thing that might be nice to add as small text / hover is the rankings of each team.
- The "attendees" number seems to just be the stadium capacity rather than the actual crowd? (I find it difficult to believe that ARG-AUS had exactly the same attendance as ALG-AUS!)
- The "( penalties)" text is confusing on every game - I'd remove it unless the game went to penalties / someone scored a penalty.

At the moment it seems out of date compared to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_FIFA_World_Cup#Bracket

For example no listing of the Japan vs Brazil knockout game.

(I am looking at it with a mobile device in case it's a rendering issue)

  I'm on desktop and I see Brazil vs Japan as the top right match in the bracket view.

    Yes, sorry, l didn't realize that you had to scroll right. It is there.
