Opta’s unique data collection system enables us to capture exactly how the major events have occurred within any game.
This means that not only can our stats be used for simple panels and tables they can also be used to highlight goals and incidents in a more exciting and engaging way.
Every action that we collect within a game of football is tagged with a x/y co-ordinate and this means that our data feeds are the ideal base for creating graphics that highlight a particular move or a series of incidents throughout a match or season.
You can use this data to create an engaging graphical interface to highlight editorial points or provide talking points, all the time making your website a compelling and sticky experience.
