12 Aug 2026Sofascore's First-Ever Player of the Season Award Show
History was made last night as Sofascore hosted its first-ever Player of the Season Award Show, shining a global spotlight on the players whose performances lit up the football world, not just with goals, but with consistent quality, match after match.
The show was hosted by sports broadcasting icon Kate Scott and football legend Peter Schmeichel, setting the tone for an evening full of football brilliance and data-backed recognition.
An All-Star Lineup On and Off the Stage
The event brought together some of the biggest names in sport. In the audience, fans spotted Dimitar Berbatov, UFC champion Stipe Miočić, and Croatian international Šime Vrsaljko, all showing their support for Sofascore’s unique, performance-based awards.
But the true stars of the night were the voices and faces joining the stage for live interviews. Football greats Jamie Carragher, Micah Richards and Alessandro Del Piero shared their thoughts on modern football, stats, and the importance of objective player analysis.

Unlike traditional award shows, the Sofascore Player of the Season trophies are awarded solely based on data. Each winner is selected through Sofascore’s Rating system, which evaluates every on-pitch action throughout the season.
This year’s winners couldn’t all attend the show in person, but their presence was felt through video messages. Raphinha, the LaLiga and Champions League winner, and Malik Tillman, top-rated in the Eredivisie, both sent heartfelt messages – a reminder of how far the Sofascore Rating now reaches.

Sofascore x CBS: A Global Production
The event was filmed under the creative direction of Pete Radovich and produced by CBS, marking a major milestone for Sofascore on the global stage. The full award show will air soon on CBS, bringing the platform’s data-first approach to football recognition to an even wider international audience.
Branimir Karačić, Director of Marketing at Sofascore, shared the broader vision behind the event:
“The Player of the Season Show is not just a celebration of the best footballers of the season. It’s a statement of what we believe in – that performance on the pitch, supported by statistical data, deserves global recognition. Our Sofascore Rating is already a go-to standard for evaluating individual quality, and the fact that the show was produced by CBS, under the creative direction of Pete Radovich, gives the entire project even more weight.”
Just the Beginning
The first Sofascore Player of the Season Award Show was more than a one-off event. It’s a new tradition built on performance, transparency, and trust in data, values that millions of sports fans already rely on daily through the Sofascore platform.
With this award show, the message is clear: football performance deserves a stage as big as the game itself.
