Entering Results and Updating Standings
Enter soccer match results in Pitch Planner, update scores from the field, and understand how standings, points, goal difference, and rankings work.
Standings update automatically as soon as you enter a result. Here’s how it works.
Entering a score
- Open your tournament and go to the Fixtures tab
- Find the match you want to update
- Click the score area (or the pencil icon)
- Enter the score for each team
- Click Save
The match status changes to Completed and standings recalculate instantly.
How standings are calculated
For round-robin and group stage formats, standings use standard soccer scoring:
| Result | Points |
|---|---|
| Win | 3 |
| Draw | 1 |
| Loss | 0 |
Tiebreakers (applied in this order):
- Points
- Goal difference (goals scored minus goals conceded)
- Goals scored
- Head-to-head result between tied teams
Correcting a result
Made a mistake? Just click the score again and update it. Standings recalculate automatically.
Knockout results
In knockout formats, entering a score automatically advances the winner to the next round. If it’s a draw in a knockout match, you’ll need to enter a winner manually (for penalty shootout scenarios).
Viewing standings
Standings are visible under the Table tab. For group + knockout tournaments, each group has its own standings table.
Your public tournament page (shared with pitch-planner.app/t/your-id) always shows the latest standings.
