Google Soccer Live Results

Google Search is now starting to show the not-so-live soccer results from the English Premier League and other major European tournaments. A search for Chelsea give me the result as shown in the screenshot below:

By the time when I did the search, the game was already 54 minutes but Google could only show result until 50 minutes. (A better update can be found at livescore.) And, Google's engineers do not seem to respect (do they even know?) the Home Away conventions in showing the results. It should have been Newcastle 0 - 0 Chelsea. Also, Google doesn't recognize "manutd" for Manchester United; only "manchester united" or "man utd" works.

By the way, I'm waiting for the time the score for Newcastle to turn into a natural number while Chelsea's remains zero. :D
