Get the basics for a match in ONE call: the score, whether it's live, when it kicks off, and who's favored. No betting knowledge needed — this answers "who's winning?", "what's the score?", "what time does Brazil play (in my timezone)?", "who's the favorite?". Returns the live score + match clock, the status, the kickoff time (in ``timezone`` if you pass an IANA name like "America/New_York"), the favored team with a plain win probability (de-vigged from the 1x2 line), and a ready-to-read ``summary`` you can quote directly. Args: query: natural-language fixture or team, e.g. "Brazil vs Argentina" or just "Brazil". timezone: optional IANA timezone (e.g. "America/New_York", "Asia/Shanghai") for the kickoff time; default UTC. sport: optional filter — "football" or "basketball". date: optional UTC date "YYYY-MM-DD" to disambiguate same-name fixtures. On an ambiguous query, ``status`` is "ambiguous" and ``ask_user`` carries a prompt — do not guess. ``favorite`` is best-effort (null when no 1x2 is on file for the fixture).
