World Cup Qualifying (AFC) endpoints

Checked against live data on 2026-10-04. Paths are relative to /api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/fifa.worldq.afc.

• Schedules are by date, not week: use /events for the current scoreboard and /seasons/{season}/schedule for a season. Week parameters return SCHEDULE_WEEKS_NOT_SUPPORTED.
• Soccer play-by-play is a stream of match events (passes, shots, fouls, cards); box scores carry team totals and period scores without player rows.
• Date-range lookups for this competition may be incomplete; the current scoreboard (/events) is reliable.

Event object fields

Every World Cup Qualifying (AFC) game in the events, live and schedule endpoints uses the same Event object as other leagues.

FAQ

Is there a free World Cup Qualifying (AFC) API?

Yes. The Free plan is $0 with 125 calls per month (1,000 in the first 30 days) at 1 request per second, no card required. The same key works for all 29 leagues.

How fresh is the World Cup Qualifying (AFC) data?

Data is aggregated from public sources and is typically 20-30 seconds behind live play (about 1 second after our source). There is no SLA. It is not intended for in-play betting that needs sub-second data.

Which World Cup Qualifying (AFC) endpoints are available?

Available: live scores, events (scoreboard), event detail, play-by-play, teams, rosters, athletes, news. Not available or not verified: box score (limited), odds (not verified), win probability (not available), injuries (not available), schedule / weeks (limited), ncaa tournament (not available).

Does the World Cup Qualifying (AFC) API include betting odds?

Not currently. No upcoming games to check when verified. The odds endpoint returns data: null with a message when a game has no odds.

Does it include World Cup Qualifying (AFC) injuries?

No. The injuries endpoint returned no records for World Cup Qualifying (AFC) when we checked, so treat injuries as not available for this league.

Can I get World Cup Qualifying (AFC) score updates pushed instead of polling?

Yes. Webhooks are included on every paid plan (Starter, Growth, Pro, Scale). WebSocket is included on paid plans, and the Free plan gets a 500-message monthly preview. Both can be filtered to fifa.worldq.afc.
