Six-source reconnaissance from both vantage points found the v3-era
blockers gone: FotMob serves full xG/shotmaps/player-ratings from the
VPS with no signed header, and FIFA's official v3 API (lineups with
player IDs + headshots, XY timelines, attendance) is open too. The
plan: capture-first ingestion (FotMob/FIFA/ESPN-deep/weather), four
CV-gated model experiments (xG-informed Team-DC, lineup-aware refresh,
bias-corrected in-play, a scorer model benchmarked against DraftKings
props), and a feature tier built on it — with explicit design-handoff
slots for the visual overhaul arriving from Claude Design.
