Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/probberechts/soccerdata/issues/259

Is there a list of definitions of "qualifiers" and "satisfiedEventsTypes" for the whoscored data ? for example, I'm trying to know what does the following list means.

"satisfiedEventsTypes": [
91,
212,
36,
37,
217
],

Here is a list with qualifiers: https://github.com/tomh05/football-scores/blob/master/data/reference/opta-qualifiers.json
I am not entirely sure what the "satisfiedEventTypes" are, but I believe they are used to tag events with subcategories such as "blocked shot", "shot off target", ... I believe you can infer the same from a combination of the action type, action result, and qualifiers. I've never used the "satisfiedEventTypes" attribute.

I found github.com/jokecamp/FootballData@7865378fe9/random_docs/Opta Playground- F24 documentation.docx and github.com/jokecamp/FootballData@7865378fe9/random_docs/Opta-f24_appendices.docx but I wonder if there is anything newer.

Thanks for sharing. I am not aware of anything that is more up-to-date.
