Start here. Find a FIFA competition (the FIFA World Cup, Women's World Cup, club competitions and more) by name or fragment, e.g. 'world cup'. Returns the matching competitions, each with the string idCompetition that every other tool builds on.

Get details for one FIFA competition by its idCompetition (name, organizer, type). Use search_competitions first if you only have the competition's name.

List a competition's seasons/editions (e.g. each World Cup year), newest first, with start and end dates. Takes an idCompetition; returns the idSeason that stage, fixture, and squad lookups need.

Get one season/edition (e.g. the 2026 FIFA World Cup) by idSeason: its dates, participating member associations, host teams, and resolved crest/logo image URLs.

List a season's stages, e.g. Group Stage, Round of 16, Final. Takes idCompetition + idSeason; returns the idStage used to scope fixtures and match lookups.

List FIFA countries and member associations (reference data), each with its idCountry.

List the six FIFA confederations (UEFA, CONMEBOL, CONCACAF, CAF, AFC, OFC), each with its idConfederation.

List a competition's matches: fixtures, kickoff times (UTC), and final scores for a season (e.g. every 2026 World Cup game). Takes idCompetition + idSeason; narrow with idStage/idGroup. Pagination is non-functional, so pass a large count for a full list; no continuation token is returned.

Get one match's event timeline in order: goals, cards, substitutions, and other key events. Takes idCompetition + idSeason + idStage + idMatch (idMatch comes from get_matches).

Get rich detail for one match: starting lineups, substitutes, officials, attendance, and weather, plus live score and status. Works for any match state (a not-yet-started match has an empty lineup and a null score). Takes idCompetition + idSeason + idStage + idMatch.

Get a national team or club by its idTeam: name, abbreviation, country, home city, and stadium. Surfaces idStadium so you can chain to get_stadium.

Get a stadium/venue by its idStadium: name, city, and capacity.
