Google Notifications keep returning, even after they have been dismissed.

I have this problem where google sends me a notification about a final score for a sports team I am interested in, I see the score - think oh that's interesting - and swipe the notification away to dismiss it. I lock my phone and go do something else for a minute and 2-5 minutes later (sometimes more) - I get the same notification again - same score - same game. I dismiss it again. This happens 5-10 times for every sports team I get notifications for, and gets really annoying when my team lost by 20 points and google is rubbing it in my face for the entire day by repeatedly sending these notifications over and over, even though I keep dismissing them.

Now, let me start by saying I want to receive these notifications, they are of interest to me, but only once. I want to be able to see the score, then dismiss that bit of information from my life. I've searched all over online, in my general phone settings, in the notifications settings, in the app itself. I haven't been able to find anything and I'm not quite sure what to do.

I have a Samsung S8, and am running Android 8.0.0. Any suggestions or am I just out of luck and need to turn the notifications off?
