I'm a little stuck on this last question. Went through it a few times thinking I might have a typo somewhere. Do you guys see the issue with this answer?

There is no column called date_played its name is played_on

SELECT home_team AS "Home Team", home_score AS "Home Score", away_team AS "Away Team", away_score AS "Away Score", played_on AS "Date Played" FROM results

The one I'm stuck on is actually this one:

In this sports team database there's a results table with the columns of id, home_team, home_score, away_team, away_score and played_on.

Alias "Home Team", "Home Score", "Away Team", "Away Score" and "Date Played" to the appropriate columns.

So for that I put:

SELECT home_team AS "Home Team", home_score AS "Home Score", away_team AS "Away Team", away_score AS "Away Score", date_played AS "Date Played" FROM results;

And I'm not sure why it doesn't work since it follows the same premise as the others in that code challenge
