I have a MYSQL table that looks as follows:

id    id_jugador    id_partido    team1     team2
1        2              1           5         2
2        2              2           1         1
3        1              2           0         0

I need to create a query to either INSERT new rows in the table or UPDATE the table. The condition is based on id_jugador and id_partido, meaning that if I wanted to insert id_jugador = 2 and id_partido = 1, then it should just UPDATE the existing row with the new team1 and team2 values I am sending. And dont duplicate the row.

However, if I have an entry id_jugador=2 and id_partido=3, since this combination does not exist yet, it should add the new row.

I read about the REPLACE INTO but it seems to be unable to check combination of UNIQUE KEYS.
