I want to do filtering from the data that I display, but there is a problem when I add where to my data.
the plan in the future I want to add if isset $request name, date and others. but was constrained at this one point.
Thank you for helping to answer in advance
$matchs =Matchs::where('type', 'sparring')->where('status','Pending')->whereNull('deleted_at')->get()->toArray();
$data=[];
foreach ($matchs as $key) {
$lawan = Matchs::where('id', $key['id'])->first()->ToArray();
$pertandingan = Sparring::where('match_id', $key['id'])->first()->ToArray();
$dua_arah = MatchTwoTeam::where('match_id', $key['id'])->first()->ToArray();
$tim = Team::where('id', $dua_arah['home_team'])->first()->ToArray();
$transfer['name']=$tim['name'];
$transfer['city']=$lawan['city'];
$transfer['field_cost']=$pertandingan['field_cost'];
$transfer['referee_cost']=$pertandingan['referee_cost'];
$transfer['logo_path']=$tim['logo_path'];
$transfer['nama_lapangan']=$lawan['nama_lapangan'];
$transfer['date']=$lawan['date'];
array_push($data,$transfer);
array_push($data,$pertandingan);
}
$data->where('name', 'LIKE', '%'.'football'.'%')->get()->toArray();
$data = array_search('football', array_column($data, 'name'));
$tittle="Sparring";
return view('mode.sparring',[
'tittle' => $tittle,
'data' => $data,
]);

You are trying to call where in an array which is not possible.
As you can see in the first line of your code you are calling where method in your model class. Like Matchs::where('type', 'sparring'), this is possible because Matchs is a Model class.
Now you can run where even if you are using array. You can convert that day in collection and then use array on that collection.
As below:
collect($data)->where('name', 'football')->toArray();
Here collect() will convert the $data array to collectio and then run the where() method in collectio then toArray() will change it back to array. But unfortunately there is no like operator possible in collection class. See the list of available method in Laravel collection here: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/collections#available-methods
There is a way to do what you are trying to do. As far as I understand you want to filter the Matches where the Team name has footbal in it. You can do it like this:
Matchs::where('type', 'sparring')
->where('status','Pending')
->whereNull('deleted_at')
->whereHas('team', function($team) {
return $team->where('name', 'LIKE', '%'.'football'.'%')
})
->get()
->toArray();
So, here we can get the only those Mathes that has the Team that has the name contains football.
Few suggestion for you as seems you are new in Laravel:
Model name should be singular instead of plural, so the model class Matchs should be Match. Your name for team's model is Team is correct.
Avoid using toArray() because you won't need it. When you call get() it will return object of collection which more readable and powerful then array in most cases.
The code I suggested to use the like using whereHas will only work if you have propery defined your team relation in your Matchs class. So, defining your relationships in model is also important. If you do so, you don't even need the for loop and all those where in other model in that loop. You can do it in one query with all the relationships.
