Database Event Details

The underlying system entry originates from source api_football under source scope 253 (source event ID api_football:253:2026:406713 and snapshot ID 1029). The source observed timestamp was recorded at 2026-10-13 09:48:51.368026+00:00, with the canonical observation finalized in the database at 2026-10-13 09:48:51.944895+00:00. The record lists 25 associated fixture IDs ranging from 1490140 to 1490506.

Because the current injury snapshot carries the exact same observation timestamp as the event itself (2026-10-13 09:48:51.944895+00:00), the active status in the database is aligned with this single verified record. This entry represents a data verification step following identity mapping rather than a fresh report from team officials or medical staff.
