Google Sports Results

GET https://scrappa.co/api/google/sports?q=bayern+munich&hl=en&gl=us

Search the sports box Google shows for a team, league or scores query (for example "bayern munich" or "nba scores") and get the games with teams, scores, status, date, time and tournament stage, the team or league header with ranking, recent and upcoming games, and the top standings rows when Google shows them. A query without a sports box returns has_box false and no games, and is not billed. A successful request with a sports box costs 1 credit. Google shows times in the time zone given in time_zone.
