The half-time/full-time grid
Each square is a full-time score, home goals across and away goals up. A full-time score can be reached from several half-time scores (a 2–1 from 0–0, 1–0, 1–1, 2–0 or 2–1), and the number shows how many of those routes have happened, out of all possible. The colour shows how complete that is. Pick a square to see its own half-time grid. To see how matches finished from one half-time score, use the home grid's Half-time view.
2–1 at full time: 6 of 6 half-time routes
