In soccer standings, D usually means draw — the number of matches a team finished tied. A draw typically gives each team 1 point in the table.

How it fits in the table

  • W = wins.
  • D = draws.
  • L = losses.
  • Points are usually calculated as 3 for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss.

Example

If a team has 10 games played with 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses, the D column would show 3, and those 3 draws would add 3 points to the team’s total.

Small note

In some contexts, “D” can mean other things, but in soccer standings it most commonly means draw.
