Scraping Whoscored Event Data

alt text

Tool to scrape match event data from Whoscored's chalkboard using Selenium.

Installation: 1) git clone https://github.com/Ali-Hasan-Khan/Scrape-Whoscored-Event-Data.git

2) pip install -r requirements.txt

3) For some additional visual customisations replace linecollection.py with the one present in mplsoccer folder on your machine (somewhere here: ~\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\mplsoccer). [Recommended for inverted gradient effect in pass maps]

4) Follow tutorial.ipynb for guide.

Reach me here for any kind of help :)
