Operational guide

How to fill in the digital match sheet

Open the right match in Copa Fut, review lineups, record goals, cards, and substitutions, generate the Pre-match sheet, and publish the official match sheet.

Open the match in the right block

The match sheet starts on the match screen, not in a parallel list.

In the app, the organizer enters Matches, opens the championship game, and sees Match status and actions, Match actions, Context and lineups, Match timeline, and Referees and support.

That context prevents entries on the wrong match. Home side, away side, phase, round, venue, notes, referees, and lineups need to be checked before goals, cards, or substitutions are recorded.

Review lineups before events

A player outside the lineup should not enter the match sheet.

The Context and lineups screen keeps roster, starters, substitutes, and staff close to the official record. Use the match lineup or the team's default lineup before saving events.

That check protects standings, scorers, and official history: each goal, card, and substitution stays attached to the right player and team.

Record the timeline with minute and period

Goals, cards, and substitutions stay in the same operational path.

In Match timeline, record goals, cards, and substitutions with player, team, minute, and period. In knockout matches, enter extra time or penalties only when the match flow requires a tiebreaker.

If referees submitted a report, review it in Referees and support before approving it, returning it, or replacing it with a manual entry. The match sheet should reflect what the league validated as official.

Publish the match sheet after validation

Publishing is the result of the correct match record, not final rework.

Use the Pre-match sheet to check the base before kickoff. After finishing the match, use the Post-match sheet to review score, events, referees, and notes.

Once checked, Publish match sheet turns the match record into the source for standings, scorers, and official history. The public sees the same operation the organizer closed in the app.
