How this service works
ESPN soccer scoreboard for one league and date: each match with home and away team, score, status (scheduled, live, full time) and stadium, from ESPN's public site JSON. Default league is the English Premier League (eng.1); times are UTC.
Output
A JSON object containing the date, league code, league name, match count, and an array of matches each with home/away team names, abbreviations, scores, match state (pre/in/post), human-readable status (e.g. FT, LIVE), venue name, match start time in UTC, and the ESPN source URL. Also includes a checkedAt timestamp.
Example use cases
Live match status during a game day
“Can you pull up the live scores for all Champions League matches happening today? I want to know the current score and status for each game.”
Post-match results recap
“What were the results for all Serie A matches on October 17th, 2026? Show me the teams, scores, and venues.”
Automated daily soccer digest
“Every morning, give me yesterday's English Premier League results — teams, scores, and match status — so I can see what I missed.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.fadeandco.workers.dev/api/dev/espn-soccer-scoreboard?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need quick, structured soccer match data (scores, status, venue) for a specific league and date sourced from ESPN's public API, without needing authentication. Prefer this over scraping ESPN directly or using paid sports data APIs when ESPN's public feed suffices and the supported leagues (Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1, Champions League) cover your need.
Side effects
- Invalid league code returns an empty matches array or error
- Future dates with no scheduled matches return count:0 and empty matches array
- Malformed date format may return an error or fall back to default date
- ESPN upstream API unavailability causes proxy failure
- Dates far in the future may have no data yet
