fotmob_get_match_players

[daanih85]

Hi!

It seems like Fotmob have changed things around as scraping player stats now looks like this:

Wondering if this is fixable?

---

library(worldfootballR)
packageVersion("worldfootballR")
[1] ‘0.6.3.7’

fotmob_matches <- c(3609994, 3610132)
players <- fotmob_get_match_players(fotmob_matches)

Ah yes, that looks like a data change on their end. I'm not sure I'll get to it this weekend, but maybe next week.

Hi both,

Just checked the merge fix for fotmob_get_match_players and it looks like there is an issue with the data

after a certain point in the nesting, the players data doesnt change for the player. i have attached a screenshot of what I am seeing, but it seems to be repeating the data for three or four players at a time rather than giving the individual players data

Using worldfootballR_0.6.3.0010

players <- fotmob_get_match_players(c(4074485))

Just found the same issue. Looks like there is an issue with players from the same team and having the same value in the position_row column having their stats values linked together in error.
