Create lineups, prepare tactics, and make soccer or futsal matchday planning easier. Soccer Lineup: Starting XI helps you build formation images, manage players, customize team uniforms, and organize tactical ideas with a dedicated Tactics Board. It supports 5v5, 6v6, 7v7, 8v8, 9v9, 10v10, and 11v11 soccer, plus futsal. [ Match Records ] Start a record from a saved lineup and capture the score, goals (including penalties), assists, substitutions, yellow cards, and red cards as the match unfolds. You can pause and resume the record, then complete it after the final whistle. You can also log shots (on and off target), corners, free kicks, penalties, and offsides for both teams, with an optional player and minute. [ Match Report ] Review a saved match with the score, match details, on-field lineup, bench, playing time, and a chronological timeline of goals, substitutions, and cards. Keep the opponent, competition, venue, home/away status, and match duration with the record. Opponent goals and cards can be recorded as well. [ Player Stats ] Completed match records are automatically aggregated by player. Check appearances, starts, substitute appearances, playing minutes, goals, assists, and cards. Search by name or number, filter by position or stat, sort the list, and view all-time, recent-match, or monthly totals. Premium also supports the current year and custom date ranges. [ Match reminders ] Set a match date on a saved lineup to receive a reminder the day before the match. Tap the notification to open the matching date in Calendar and review the lineup. [ Tactics Board ] Place your team and the opponent on the pitch, then add arrows, areas, freehand lines, and notes. Connect players with lines, arrows, or areas, and the connections follow the players as you move them. Full-pitch boards can be used in landscape or portrait, so it is easier to review pressing, build-up routes, and set-piece ideas on a phone screen.
