You can transform this array into JSON data:

require 'laliga_stats_parser'
require 'json'

stats = LaligaStatsParser.scrap_laliga_stats

File.open("laliga.json", "wb") do |file|
  file << JSON.pretty_generate(stats)
end

And import the resultant file into MongoDB (database name laliga, collection name statistics):

mongoimport -d laliga -c statistics laliga.json --jsonArray
