Every player starts a match on 6.5. SofaScore's algorithm then adjusts the rating with stats from its data providers, around 60 times during the game, weighting goal involvement more heavily and with small differences by position. The exact formula isn't public.
It's consistent, not personal. It can only use the events its data feed records, and one formula covers every player. 1st Touch has a trained analyst tag every action of your match live, and a second person checks it, so each number comes with the moment behind it.
For following football, SofaScore is hard to beat, and it's free. For understanding your own game you need more than a rating: every action, the clip and the context. That is what 1st Touch is built for.
