The localizing functions have two variaties, one that echos the string value and the other one that returns it’s string value.
Because you would want to display the string (echo it), you would want the correct function for the specific string which will echo the output. For easy simple strings (__('PLAYER POINTS AT A GLANCE.','gogreensoccer')) like you have above, the __() and _e() functions would work
-
__('PLAYER POINTS AT A GLANCE.','gogreensoccer')would return the string value, useful if you need add a value to a variable and store for later use -
_e('PLAYER POINTS AT A GLANCE.','gogreensoccer')would be what you need. This will echo the string to screen
Both are valid in all plugins and themes
