Live scores and data
How often do live scores update?
The Live page checks for new data about every 15 seconds. Other pages update whenever you load them, and schedule data is cached for short periods, from seconds up to a few minutes.
Why is a score sometimes a little behind?
Data comes from a provider and is cached briefly to keep pages fast on busy match days. A short delay is normal, so please do not treat FawaNews as an official timing source.
Where does the match data come from?
Match data is supplied by the API-Football data service.
Are line-ups and statistics available for every match?
Not always. Line-ups usually appear around an hour before kick-off and statistics depend on the competition and the provider. Our guide to match pages explains what to expect.
Competitions and features
Which competitions are covered?
The Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, the UEFA Champions League, Europa League and Conference League, Allsvenskan and the South African Premiership. See competitions covered on FawaNews or the Leagues page.
How do I find a specific team or player?
Use the search bar at the top of any page to look up teams, leagues and players.
Does FawaNews send push notifications?
No. Goal pop-ups appear on the Live page while it is open in your browser. They do not reach you when the tab is closed.
What time zone are kick-off times in?
Yours. The site detects your time zone from your browser. Football kick-off times and time zones has the details.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. FawaNews is designed for phones first, and there is a dark mode you can switch on from the top bar.
