FIFA World Cup 2026 Fixtures & Results Scraper
FIFA World Cup 2026 Fixtures & Results Scraper
Extract all 104 FIFA World Cup 2026 match fixtures and live results from the official api.fifa.com endpoint. Returns match scores, attendance, weather conditions, stadium details, referee, stage, group, and team data — in a single normalized dataset updated in real time.
What this actor does
The actor calls the official api.fifa.com/api/v3/calendar/matches endpoint directly (no browser rendering, no proxy). A single GET request returns all 104 matches across group stage and knockout rounds (June 11 – July 19, 2026) as clean JSON.
What you get:
- Live and final scores (home/away goals, penalty shootout scores)
- Stadium name, city, country, and FIFA stadium ID
- Match date/time (UTC and local), stage, group, and matchday
- Home and away team names with FIFA team IDs
- Referee name
- Weather conditions: temperature, humidity, wind speed, description
- Match attendance
- Match status (played / scheduled)
Why this beats HTML scrapers: Competing actors scrape fifa.com's 4.5 KB JavaScript-rendered shell, which exposes only a subset of available data. The direct API endpoint returns weather, attendance, stadium IDs, and referee records that HTML scraping cannot reach.
