GoldenBoot's Touchline mode is built for speed on game day. Every control is designed for quick, one-tap interaction.

1. Open Touchline from GoldenBoot
2. Select your opponent from your opponent list
3. Mark your starters (maximum one goalkeeper on the field)
4. Tap Start to begin the game clock

• Start — Begins the clock and starts tracking playing time for all active players
• Pause — Stops the clock (for injuries, delays, etc.)
• Resume — Continues the clock from where it paused

The clock runs continuously. Each player's individual playing time is tracked automatically based on when they're on the field.

Advance through match periods using the period controls:

Tap the period button to advance. The clock can be paused at halftime and resumed for the second half. Period changes are logged in the Game Log.

• Tap the scoreboard to enter stats for the scoring player
• Tap + or - next to your team's score or the opponent's score
• The score ticker at the top shows goal scorers with minute markers

When you record a goal for your team, you'll be prompted to select the scorer. The goal, minute, and player are logged in the Game Log and displayed in the score ticker.

Each player shows their current status:

• Playing — Currently on the field (green)
• Bench — Available for substitution
• Out — Not available

Playing time accumulates only while a player's status is Playing and the game clock is running.

Track additional match context:

• Bench cards — Monitor cards issued to bench players or staff
• Opponent stats — Track opponent corners, fouls, and other set piece stats alongside your own

1. Advance the period to Finished
