well my struct is fix but i have new errors i hve never seen before :
here are the errors
football.cpp(194) : error C2664: 'void Football::SearchMatches(Match *,int,std::string)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'Match *[2000]' to 'Match *'
football.cpp(205) : error C2664: 'void Football::SearchMatches(Match *,int,std::string,int)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'Match *[2000]' to 'Match *'
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style castnew code FOR FOOTBALL.H after adjustments
