# List Matches

> Football matches filtered by status and date

## What it returns

Football matches, filterable by `status` (comma-separated, e.g. `live,not_started`) and `date` (`YYYY-MM-DD`, on scheduled time). Live matches sort first, then by kickoff.

Each row carries the match shape: stable `id` (`sr:sport_event:{int}`) + `uuid`, numeric `sport_event_status`, string `status`, `match_status` (period), live score, home/away competitors with `qualifier` + `icon_path`, nested tournament and category, and the raw `coverage` block.

## Common queries

| Goal              | Query                                 |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Live now          | `?status=live`                        |
| Upcoming today    | `?status=not_started&date=2026-06-21` |
| Live + upcoming   | `?status=live,not_started`            |
| Recently finished | `?status=ended,closed`                |
