Football LiveStats - substitutions workflow

On this page

    Introduction

    ℹ️ Substitutions are made to replace a player who has become tired or injured, who is performing poorly, or for tactical reasons. In football, those are permitted only during stoppages of play, and a player who has been subbed out of a game cannot re-enter it.

    Workflow

    1️⃣ Initiate the substitutions workflow. After clicking on the SUBSTITUTION button below the initial players' team line up, the SUBSTITUTIONS window will display. This button will also indicate the number of substitutions remaining. This screen will indicate:

    • the Subs Remaining,
    • the list of substitutions being made,
    • and the available substitutes that could be selected.

    2️⃣ Select players involved in SUBSTITUTION and Save and Confirm it, or Cancel and Delete it. Select the player that is being either subbed in or out. Choose either one of both players first. Then, the substitutions list will update, and the action log will also display the substitution being placed there. After that, the Save and Confirm the Substitution or Cancel and Delete it from the log if it was undone or not happening.

    3️⃣ Continue updating subsequent actions in the game. Mark the pitch once the ball is being back in play. And continue updating the match, with any subsequent action (i.e Change in possession, throw-in, corner kick, etc.).

    4️⃣ End of the workflow.
