Context: As part of adding new premium sports video rights to the Discovery+ streaming service, Eurosport's front-end teams will develop a "Sport Skin" on the video player. This is a graphical overlay that interacts with the player and allows for the live display of a timeline indicating all the most important actions of a football or rugby match (goals, cards, penalties).

Thus, users will be able to quickly access the best moments of a match by clicking on these markers!
