Updated to match(es) played on 1 January 1900. Source: Wikipedia
Notes:
  1. Match awarded to FIFA World Cup Dream Team with a 1–0 score.

The main command is {{#invoke:Sports results|main}}, which calls the module and sets the basic structure up. Then you list the order in which the teams are listed as |team1=, |team2=, etc for however many teams you need in the table. If you set |showteam= to a team, then that team's results are highlighted as in the example. The display of team names for team TTT is now governed by |name_TTT= and |short_TTT= for the row and column headers respectively. The results for the game TTT vs. SSS can now be input by |match_TTT_SSS=. The table is build this way, future games can be listed with their date or they can be left blank.

The source is controlled by |source=. The update date can be set by |update=date when the season is active; can be removed after the season with |update=complete and can be set for a future start date by using |update=future and setting the start date with |start_date=.

The width of the columns can be set by |match_col_width=.

A note can be added to a result using |match_TTT_SSS_note=.

Legend: Blue = home team win; Yellow = draw; Red = away team win.

Team header

change

To change the default Home \ Away team header, use |team_header=.

Two legs

change

For two matches per team pair, use |legs=2 and |match1_AAA_BBB= / |match2_AAA_BBB= instead of |match_AAA_BBB=. For wide tables, use |multirowlegs=y which provides a more narrow format.

Blank and pivot cells

change

Pivot cells defaulted to show (m-dash), but they can be changed to solidly colored cell using code |solid_cell= where color of the cell could be set by indicating with a phrase (i.e. grey). Also, each individual cell could be made inactive with a phrase null.

Generating a blank table

change

To generate a blank table, use

{{subst:#invoke:Sports results/blank|main
| team1 = AAA | team2 = BBB | ...
}}

where |team1=, |team2=, ... are the abbreviations for the team names in the order you wish them to appear. You may include |name_...= and other parameters as well, and they should be included in the result.
