Changelog
Everything new on OVER.FOOTBALL, newest first.
- v0.14.0NEW21 June 2026
Cinematic goal scenes
- Every goal now plays out as a cinematic 3D scene on the pitch, recreating the build-up, the finish and the celebration with live commentary.
- Goal scenes are deterministic: open a shared match later and each goal replays from the exact same positions and angle as the live game.
- Goal scenes mirror the real match, sent-off players are off the pitch and teams switch ends for the second half.
- The goalscorer shown in the scene now always matches the ticker, timeline and result summary, and the goal is no longer revealed before the scene plays.
- Reworked match audio into a single system with multiple variations of every sound, so passes, shots and crowd noise never repeat.
- Crowd ambience now starts during the pre-match countdown and carries through the whole game.
- The referee blows a double whistle at full time, and whistles are calmer during fast-forwarded play.
- Added a ticking countdown while an interactive match is paused.
- Added a Share on X button to the full-time summary.
- v0.13.020 June 2026
