NOWGOAL, My favorite football team is "El Santos Laguna" and from Europe is Juventus. Hi! My name is Enrique, I am an experienced web scraper and this seems like an easy job for me. Also, I have a lot of enthusiasm since we are in the middle of the World Cup and Mexico is doing well. My questions for this project are: 1. Which OS are you using? 2. I will write this script in Python, but the output that you will obtain is an Excel spreadsheet. Is that Ok? Also, I will provide help to install and run the script on your computer. Thanks

NOWGOAL. Not familiar with football clubs though :-( Hi, I looked at the pages. And they load the data via javascript. Usually when that happens there are two different strategies. If they pages are loading json, which have the data already prepared, then just read the json stream. Else, you will need to use selenium project (headless chrome browser). The project would have three phases. The first is to identify the data you want, and the best way to get it. The second it to either read the json streams or use headless chrome to do xpath to the table structure. The third is to write it to the excel sheet. Would you want the sheet stored on the server, and just add to the sheet as new data is given ?
