Football, in focus

About us

About Football: independent football coverage by the Matchweek Desk editorial team.

Who we are

About Football is an independent football website. Stories are written by the Matchweek Desk editorial team and link to the reporting and records behind them. The site is operated by AboutFootball, Ukraine.

Our editorial approach

Read the full editorial policy.

We connect approved football reporting with relevant fixtures and player performance. Editorial stories remain separate from structured match facts.

How we produce our stories

Matchweek Desk uses automated tools to organise football data and assist research, drafting and editing. Our articles link to the reporting and records behind their claims. Observed results, our calculations and editorial interpretation remain separate. Automated collection does not itself publish a story.

Statistics describe a dated sample. Missing minutes, ratings or expected-goals data stay unavailable, and a short run of results is not a guarantee about the next match. We check original reporting before making corrections or updating a story. See corrections policy.

Analysis and commercial links

A betting selection requires editorial review and carries no guarantee. Any approved affiliate link is identified beside the link, and we may earn commission if you follow one. No partner offers are currently active.

Adults only

Betting content is for readers aged 18 and over. Betting involves financial risk: never bet more than you can afford to lose. Support is available from GamCare and BeGambleAware.

Data and photography

Structured football facts are displayed only when their source permits storage and public display. The source and season remain attached to each fact. Photography credits follow the asset records below; a listed photo source is not automatically used as an image on this page.

Season tables and squad facts adapted from Wikipedia retain links to the source article and its contributor history. These adaptations are available under CC BY-SA 4.0. OpenFootball match data is provided under CC0. Facts have been normalized and grouped; source credits are listed below.
