Player database

Displaying teams' sheets or dynamic information about a player in real time, and in-game, becomes easy.

Full graphic editor

LiveCG Football editor allows customization of the graphical content with clubs and championships standards. It lets you import still or animated components from existing visuals created with tools like Photoshop®, After Effects®, Flash®. LiveCG Football comes with a full set of templates to cover every need: large full-screen scoreboard, miniature screen-corner scoreboard, display of team sheets and players, statistics tables, extra time, fouls, penalties, and more.

Clocks and in-game event management

LiveCG Football generates clocks for automatic time displays: normal playing time, additional time and extended play. The user interface allows the operator to trigger each animation for any game's action, with a single mouse click: offside, red/yellow card, player substitution, penalty, corner, goal attempt, etc. When the operator triggers one of these animations, it automatically increments the corresponding counter: match score, player statistics, team statistics, etc.

For Live operation

The user interface has been designed with specific modules, to give the operator a complete control over the synchronization between graphics' display and the speaker's comments on site. Another module can be used to display the ranking and results updates from other games or the overall competition. LiveCG Football features an interface dedicated to animate and customize penalty shoot-out.

Statistics Module

LiveCG Football can keep track of a whole range of data and display the running totals during the game: Ball possession per team, shots on target vs. total shots, goal chances, assists vs. total passes, fouls by/on a player. An optional module gives the ability to import external data to display in real-time, provided by sports data companies such as OPTA.
