What score update graphics are

Score updates are the graphics that go out during the match — goal announcements and the half-time score. They are the fastest-turnaround graphics in the matchday set: a goal goes in, the announcement goes out within minutes.

Two templates are prepared before kick-off — one for a home goal, one for an away goal. On the day, the scorer's name and the new scoreline drop into the pre-built template. No design work on matchday — just fill in the blanks and post.

Goal announcements

Half-time score

A quick scoreline update at the break. Minimal text, maximum clarity — both badges, the score, the word "Half Time". Some clubs skip it. That is a mistake: the half-time window is when engagement peaks, and a club that posts at the break is a club that feels alive.

Quick answers

Do I need two templates for home and away goals?
The scorer name stays the same. The graphic does not distinguish — the name and minute are what matter.
