The figures

Coverage
5 outlets in 5 countries, across 4 regions, 1 of them trade press. The article links are kept for good for every story that reaches the map. Of the 5 outlets, 1 state-owned, 4 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region
Africa 1: Kenya. Asia-Pacific 1: Singapore. Europe 2: Belgium, Cyprus. Middle East 1: Qatar. The region a country’s press publishes from, as the feed list files it; the outlets that publish from no single country count as one country under International.
Languages
English, Dutch.
Timeline
Earliest article Citizen Digital, 9 Oct 2026, 08:23 UTC. First seen 9 Oct 2026, 08:30 UTC. Last seen 10 Oct 2026, 22:00 UTC. The earliest article is the earliest claimed publication time among the outlets Loudest reads, a claim rather than an observation and not a record of who broke the story (the data files call it the lead article); first seen is when Loudest first fetched an article of it, from which the running time counts.
Classification
Region Europe, United Kingdom. Topic Sport. Hard news Judged hard news. On the map. Whether the story is hard news under the rule in the methodology, judged from its headlines by a model; a story judged outside the rule is left off the map and kept here. The region and country are where the story is about, not where it was covered.
Score
0.01, as of now. One vote per general-press country and a smaller term for outlets, each counted from the moment it joined the story and fading on its own clock, so a late article does not renew the rest. A day in the archive keeps the score it was ranked by that day.
Chain
Continued by Man City beat 10-man Liverpool at Anfield after guilty verdicts; Formacionet zyrtare Liverpool – Man City: “Qytetarët” duan ta vazhdojnë rekordin e të pamposhturit në Ligën Premier; IL seuraa: Vihan derby – Anfield ei anna anteeksi huijareille; LIVE. Heel de wereld kijkt toe: hoe komt Manchester City voor de dag in eerste match na alle heisa rond financiële fraude?. A story continues another when it resembled it as it began, past that story’s own 48-hour box.
