How to create and share a match report
Using Mingle Sport you can share match content. So friends and family can follow the match. In the Mingle Sport app or on the web using the Match Link. In this tutorial we will explain how to share scores and content. And how to start a liveblog. So followers can stay up to date with instant notifications.
What can be shared in the match report?
Using Mingle Sport you can keep track of all basic match facts and create match content. Content you can create for your match report:
A Line-up
Scores: goals and assists
Substitutes & cards
Media: Video and pictures
Liveblog commentary
Users with scorekeeping or content rights can add content. By default all team members within a team have these rights, so everyone can contribute.
How can people follow a match?
By default, the content created for a team is visible only for team members (players, staff and ‘team support’).
For parents, friends and fans that are not part of the team, there are two ways to follow a match.
Follow a player and use the Mingle Sport app
Through the Match Link and use the web feed
Followers of players using the Mingle app get push notifications of key moments. If you want to follow a player you need to send a follow request to a member of the team. Once accepted, followers will be able to see match content. They can cheer or comment to updates.
How to start a liveblog?
In case you want to keep your followers up to date of all key match moments, you can start a liveblog. By starting a liveblog, followers will get a push notification when the match has started, when goals are scored and when the match has ended.
We advice to use the match timer in combination with the liveblog so that all updates get the exact minute.

(optional) create a starting line-up
Go to the Liveblog tab
Start the liveblog and share an update. (Followers will be notified you started the liveblog)

When the match has ended followers will be notified of the final sore. Followers and team members can comment and cheer on each update. Or on the match card on the activity feed.
