About me

My name is Daniel. I'm a software architect and football fanatic from Germany. As a kid, every Monday, I used to transcribe the newspaper shorttype-reports of Eintracht Frankfurt on a typewriter. Pretty useless but it was fun for whatever reason.

Today I'm addicted to questioning football statistics I come across in the media. So when a commentary mentions the home team "did not score for 23 matches in a row", I can't help myself but challenge that like

• how often does that happen?
• is it reflected by the odds?
• who did they score against 24 matches back then?
• is there any other team with a similar streak?

Even though there are tons of soccer websites out there, I couldn't find one that met my exact requirements and ideas to support me well in answering these questions quickly.

About native-stats.org

So I started to built native-stats.org, which tries to offer a clean - native - UI for fast access to (aggregated) data.

native-stats is built using modern web technologies and sits on top of football-data.org. I wrote the first code snippets somewhen in 2019 and during my x-mas vacation 2020/21 I added some efforts to make it available for public use.
As of this writing in April 2022 it's still early beta-stage, but evolving steadily. I hope some people will already find it useful.
