Getting text attributes from different elements on a website using Python

I am attempting to scrape text from different elements within a website. I have had no luck scraping any text so far. attached is the HTML and a picture of the exact elements I would like to extract from the website. I want to scrape the date/time, the name of the teams "Juventus - AC Milan", and the odds. I am not asking for it to be done for me I just don't know why my code isn't getting text from the buttons.

HTML

Website

I'm using urllib3 and beautifulsoup4. I got the header from a forum and just changed the chrome version to mine. How do I know what needs to be inside my header? Attached is the code I have tried:

import urllib3
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = "https://beta.goal3.xyz/sports/soccer"

# Define the headers
headers = {
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/113.0.5672.127 Safari/537.11',
    'Accept': 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8',
    'Accept-Charset': 'ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3',
    'Accept-Encoding': 'none',
    'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.8',
    'Connection': 'keep-alive'
}

# Create an instance of the PoolManager with the specified headers
http = urllib3.PoolManager(headers=headers)

# Send a GET request to the website
response = http.request('GET', url)

# Check if the request was successful
if response.status == 200:
    # Parse the HTML content using BeautifulSoup
    soup = BeautifulSoup(response.data, 'html.parser')

    # Find the element with the specified tag and class
    element = soup.find('div', class_='flex justify-between flex-1 w-full')

    if element:
        # Locate the elements with the specified tag and class within the found element
        buttons = element.find_all('button', class_='group outcome')

        # Iterate over the found elements and print the text attribute of the span tags
        for button in buttons:
            span = button.find('span')
            if span:
                print(span.text)
    else:
        print("Element not found.")
else:
    print("Failed to retrieve the website content.")

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
