Football* fans from the UK should rejoice: Google added an OneBox that shows scores and upcoming matches when you search for the name of a team (Arsenal, Manchester United etc). Apparently, Google shows the OneBox only for the US and the UK sites.
EPL Talk wonders if Google pays a fee to display this information, but I wouldn't worry about that. "By law, publishers must pay a license fee to the Football DataCo Limited company that in turns shares the money with the clubs in the Premier League and Football League."
It's interesting to notice that Google SMS and Google's mobile search engine show scores and schedules from NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL, NCAA and from many football championships: Primera División, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 etc.
* Note for the American readers: you may replace "football" with "soccer" in this post.
OT: Thanks for the “football” comment, as it is just that, football :)
ReplyDeleteIt would also be great in the future to add information of when your Team is on the Television or big screen, a mini schedule if you like.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

ReplyDeleteWell this is really a great news for all the football fans in the world.
ReplyDeleteThis will make things easier for them..
I am looking forward to the baseball results coming through, and then basketball, I suppose all of the major sports will eventually be represented.
ReplyDeleteBetter than American "football"
ReplyDeleteSoccer is the best in planet earth. I do respect any sport and people who practice other disciplines, however, soccer is the best.
ReplyDeleteSo convenient! I can pull up scores from my favorite team in less than a minute!
