I’ve built a few accounts that post automated data reports on Bluesky after matches:
MLS: @mlsstat.bsky.social
NWSL: @nwslstat.bsky.social
USL: @uslstat.bsky.social
I started building these accounts in early 2024 and the dev process finished last season. More on what the graphics mean below:
A quick reintroduction for all of those who have followed since last season:
Hi! I’m Cat! I’m currently a student at Willamette University and I do a lot of work on Bluesky around soccer data, specifically data viz. I also do some freelance writing and have worked with teams in the past.
Screenshot of dashboard: "How your team scores: MLS xg data" various stat breakdowns and pitch graphic with shots shown as dots below
It took me a sec, but the xG dashboard is back for 2026!
For those who weren't here last season, the dashboard uses @jamonm.bsky.social & @carloncarpenter.bsky.social's WGCF principles to break down MLS shots.
Built using @americansocceranalysis.com data.
