[Google Search API] Scrape event status for `sports_results`
A user requested that we scrape the event status for sports_results. Currently, we're not providing this data in the response from our Google Search API:
We received a request for something similar to this. Specifically, scraping the live status of how many minutes have elapsed/are remaining in a game.
I've included a Playground link below, but to properly reproduce this, you need to find a live game. The game included in the search below will be over by the time anyone sees this. You can check Fotmob to see if there's a football match ongoing somewhere in the world in a league they cover. Then search for those two teams in Google to see if Google returns live results for that match.
Feature has been released.
Now we grab event status for tennis and game_spotlight.in_game_time for soccer live games.
(no live soccer games right now to double check, will update ASAP)
Thanks @ocvit . I found a live game to test with. Looks good to me:
Here's a Playground link to the game. This will finish in a little over an hour from now.
If you miss that one, you can find more ongoing games here: https://www.fotmob.com/?show=ongoing
