About Scorigami FC

A scorigami is a final score that had never happened before in the history of a competition. The idea was created by Jon Bois for the NFL and has spread to other sports, like Scorigami NBA. Scorigami FC brings it to football, with Brazil's Brasileirão, the top European leagues, MLS, the Argentine Primera and Liga MX.

What counts as a final score

• The score on the pitch at the end of the game counts, including extra time when there was any.
• Penalty shootouts don't change the score. They only appear as a note on the game.
• Knockout games and finals count like any other game.
• Walkovers and results changed by a tribunal are marked. The score that counts is the one on the pitch, with a note.
• Only games with a reliable date and score are included.
• A scorigami is measured within each league: a score never seen before in the Brasileirão is a scorigami even if it has happened in another competition.

What the Brasileirão includes

The history covers every edition the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) recognizes as the Brazilian championship: the Taça Brasil (1959–1968), the Torneio Roberto Gomes Pedrosa (1967–1970) and the Campeonato Brasileiro from 1971.

What the European leagues include

Each league is the national top flight from its first season with reliable dates, with old names counted as the same league: the English First Division (1888/89–1991/92) together with the Premier League, and the French Division 1 (until 2001/02) together with Ligue 1. La Liga starts in 1928/29, Serie A in 1929/30 (including the 1945/46 Divisione Nazionale), the Bundesliga in 1963/64, the Eredivisie in 1956/57 and Ligue 1 in 1938/39, because the French seasons from 1932 to 1937 have no match dates in any source. The Primeira Liga starts in 1994/95: before that, the sources only have the scores, without dates. European seasons appear as "2024/25" and, in the site's addresses, by their starting year.

What MLS includes

Every season since 1996, including the playoffs. The season follows the calendar year. In the playoffs, the score after extra time counts and penalties only appear as a note. From 1996 to 1999, regular-season draws were decided by shootouts; here the draw on the pitch counts.

What Argentina includes

The top flight since 1891, including the official breakaway championships (the FAF from 1912 to 1914 and the Asociación Amateurs from 1919 to 1926), the AAF amateur tournaments from 1931 to 1934 and the 1936 Copa de Honor. When a year had more than one tournament, like Apertura and Clausura or Metropolitano and Nacional, all of them count, with the final rounds set out in the rules. Playoffs, promotion and relegation games, the Copa Argentina and super cups are left out. The season is the year of the tournament's first game; the long seasons from 1985/86 to 1990/91 count in their starting year. In 1988/89, draws went to penalties for a bonus point: here the draw counts, and the penalties appear as a note.

What Mexico includes

The top flight since 1943/44, with the regular season, the liguilla and the play-ins. The Copa México, the Campeón de Campeones and relegation games are left out. Since 1996/97 each year has two short tournaments (now Apertura and Clausura), counted together in the season that starts in the second half of the year: Apertura 2024 and Clausura 2025 make up 2024/25. The México 70 tournament counts in 1969/70.
