# Get Match

> Resolve a football match by URN, integer, or UUID

## What it returns

A single match — the same shape as a list row, with full home/away competitors, nested tournament + category, live score, period, numeric `sport_event_status`, and coverage.

## Resolving by id

`match_id` accepts any of the ids you might already hold:

| Form           | Example                                |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| SportRadar URN | `sr:sport_event:68823000`              |
| Bare integer   | `68823000`                             |
| Our UUID       | `be779ac7-b93e-4bc3-b78c-10f29d594291` |

This mirrors the AMQP `event_id` (`od:match:{int}`): the integer from a feed message resolves the match here directly.
