 * Well, as php 8 introduces the keyword Match, the plugin is broken because it 
   has its own class called “Match”. So i changed the name of the class to Matcher
   and changed “Match” to “Matcher” whereever the class is used and it works fine
   now.
 * But im not sure if there may be some more issues.
