[SoFIFA] IndexError: list index out of range, for read_teams()

[ckim16]

i get the following error when trying to retrieve teams from SoFIFA read_teams() method.

   teams = soFiFa.read_teams()
            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages/soccerdata/sofifa.py", line 202, in read_teams
    team_link = node.xpath(".//td[@class='col-name-wide']/a")[0]
                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^
IndexError: list index out of range

pretty new to python so not sure what's going on here.

anybody else had similar issue?

It is currently only fixed in the master branch. There is no new release on the master branch yet. The following should work:

pip install git+https://github.com/probberechts/soccerdata.git

or

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ soccerdata
