The annotation of set expressions and other complex, syntactically atypical constructions in sports commentaries is governed by the general rules for the annotation of verbal and non-verbal clauses (see Section 4, "Verbal and non-verbal clauses").
The annotation of tables of sports results is governed by the rules for the annotation of tables set out here in Section 12.4, "Tables". In sports tables the option of inserting an empty verb node is applied more frequently (cf. for example: Fig. 8.260 to Fig. 8.263). In cases where the insertion of a verb would be too unnatural, the construction is analysed as nominative clauses which are co-ordinated or in apposition, whichever of these two semantic relationships more closely corresponds to the construction (cf. for example: Fig. 8.264).
NB! The node for a dash expressing the relationship between two fighting units (individuals or teams) is assigned the functor CONTRA (cf. for example: Fig. 8.260 and Fig. 8.261). The node for a dash between parts of one unit (e.g. team, couple) or a union of two or more units fighting together is assigned the functor CONJ (cf. for example: Fig. 8.262).

Again, in other complex constructions, the possibility or impossibility of inserting an empty verb is the first consideration. If the construction cannot be interpreted as a verbal clause, the relationships between the individual expressions are represented as nominative clauses, paratactic or in apposition.
