Match Report
Sunday by 18:00One-page PDF: xG, shot map, pass network, top performers, set-piece breakdown, AI commentary. Ready by Sunday afternoon — every match, every week.
Phakama Analytics produces AI-driven match reports, opposition dossiers and highlight reels for the forgotten tiers — ABC Motsepe, Hollywoodbets Regional and LFA Premier on the football side; schoolboy and amateur club rugby on the rugby side. From R 550 a month. No contract.
Football analytics has consolidated globally. Hudl now owns StatsBomb and Wyscout. Their floor pricing assumes English Premier League economics — not Mitchell's Plain Sunday-afternoon football. Ninety percent of South African clubs are excluded by price, not by need.
AI changed the maths. Open-source computer vision, large language models, and a founder who watches the game lets a one-person operation produce analyst-grade output for one-fiftieth of the global price. That's Phakama.
Below is a live shot map drawn the same way every Phakama match report draws one. Gold dots are goals. Navy dots are misses. Larger dots = higher expected-goals (xG) value. The shape of the map tells the gaffer where his side is creating — and where he's leaking.
Two goals (gold), both inside the six-yard box. Six clear chances created — three of them inside the area. The opposition forced everything else from the edge. That's a side dominating the dangerous third, not a side getting lucky on the scoreboard.
Every Phakama match report carries this map alongside the pass network, set-piece breakdown, and a one-paragraph "Story of the match" written by AI and spot-checked by an analyst before delivery.

Auto-clipped video: every shot, every chance, every defensive action. 3-minute reel for socials; bespoke clips on request for Iqhawe and above.

Veo cloud share, broadcast feed, smartphone-on-tripod, or LFA league recording. Drop the file into your private Phakama Drive folder.
Computer vision tracks every player, the ball, jersey teams. A Python event detector converts pixels into structured passes, shots, tackles and possessions.

This is what your gaffer reads on the way to training. Not a 30-tab dashboard he'll never log into; not a Hudl licence the kit-man can't open. A single Phakama-branded page with the numbers that matter and the story they tell.
Download the sample below — it's rendered from public StatsBomb data with our pipeline and clearly flagged as a sample. The exact format your club would receive from real footage every week.
Exactly. Phakama gives him the receipts to back his eye, and the receipts to win arguments with the chairman.
Imvula tier is R 550 a month — less than three takeaway lunches. If we can't show value in two months, we walk and refund the unused portion.
A phone on a tripod works. We'll teach you in 10 minutes. Once you're a paying client, we'll quote you a Veo Go subsidy in your second season.
Those are league results sites. Phakama is your private analyst. None of our reports are ever public.
Everything we deliver is in your Google Drive. You own the files. We don't lock anything.
We're POPIA-compliant. Players sign a release on a digital form. Data is only used for your club unless both you and the player opt in to the anonymised player database.
No, and anyone who does is lying. We can guarantee your chairman has the same caliber of information as the PSL clubs.
Twenty minutes. We provision a Drive folder, a WhatsApp number, and send you the upload link.
We do — but every report is exclusive to the buying club. Reports are private; the database that powers them is shared only in anonymised form.
Every report is human-reviewed by the founder before delivery. AI does the heavy lifting; the founder signs off. Material errors are corrected for free within 24 hours.
WhatsApp "cancel". Service stops, the unused portion refunds within 14 days. No contract. No exit fee.
Reports issued in isiXhosa, isiZulu, or Afrikaans on request from Inkanyezi tier and up. Hudl will not do that.
Tell us your next fixture. We'll send you a free 4-page opposition report by the end of the week. No pitch. No follow-up unless you want one.
