Is the expected schema for each API endpoint documented somewhere?

I was thinking of building pydantic models for each API endpoint result (Match details, Player details, Team details, etc), but it will be tricky if we don't know the expected schema. For example, this call to the match details endpoint (https://www.fotmob.com/api/matchDetails?matchId=4446454) returns a complex nested json with around 20k lines. Technically we could go through the results of each endpoint and reason about the schema ourselves, but it would be great if the 'true' schema is defined somewhere.

The schema isn't defined anywhere as far as I'm aware. It may only make sense for the endpoints where the JSON structure isn't as complex.
