How to play Football Grid

  1. A 3×3 grid where each row is a country and each column is a position. Fill every cell with a player who matches both. Our database answers all nine cells, so a full solution always exists.

About the data

This game is built on our own database of footballers and clubs, assembled from open football data and maintained alongside the puzzle. Clues and answers are generated from that database rather than copied from anywhere else, which is why they always agree.
