Okay, so, I’ve been digging into this whole Guinea vs. Gambia football rivalry thing. Let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a journey figuring it all out.
First off, I started by just trying to get a general sense of their head-to-head record. You know, who’s won more games, who’s scored more goals, that kind of basic stuff. I used several sports websites. It was a pain to check them one by one.
Then, I realized I needed to organize the information better. So, I made this messy spreadsheet. I started pulling in data from these websites, noting down each match, the date, the score, and all that jazz. It got pretty complicated pretty fast, with all the numbers and dates swimming around.
After that, I thought, “Hey, wouldn’t it be cool to see their win percentages?” So, I did some quick maths – nothing fancy, just dividing the number of wins by the total number of matches. That gave me a clearer picture of who’s been more dominant over the years.
- Started by gathering basic match data.
- Created a spreadsheet to organize the information.
- Calculated win percentages for each team.
I also wanted to look at goals. Average goals per game, who scores first more often, you name it. It’s these little details that make the rivalry interesting, right? So I added more columns to my already overflowing spreadsheet, tracking all of that.
The next step was looking at some recent matches, especially the one on January 19, 2024. I found some live stats and predictions for that game. It was fascinating to see how the pre-game predictions stacked up against the actual results. Sometimes they were spot on, other times, not so much.
And get this – I even started looking at yellow and red cards! I know, I know, it’s not officially how these things are ranked, but I thought it was interesting to see which team tends to play rougher. I assigned points for each card type, just for fun, to see if there was a pattern.
My Findings
After all this digging and calculating, I’ve got a pretty good handle on the Guinea vs. Gambia match history. The spreadsheet is a bit of a mess, but it’s packed with info. I can tell you who’s won more often, who scores more, and even who gets carded more. It’s been a fun little project, and it’s definitely made me appreciate these matches a whole lot more.
Honestly, this whole thing has been a wild ride. From scratching my head over confusing data to finally getting some clear insights, it’s been quite the learning experience. This is not just about numbers on a page. It’s about the passion, the rivalry, and the history between these two teams.
