Answer by Dominique for Awk command to find the most common word in a file?

What about this:

awk '{print $2}' file1.txt  | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'

• awk '{print $2}' (the first one) shows only the team
• sort sorts :-)
• uniq -c preceeds every word by its frequency
• sort -n sorts by number (meaning by frequency)
• tail -n 1 takes the last one (with the largest frequency)
• awk '{print $2}' (the second one) only shows the team name, not the frequency
