 === `py:match` ===
 
+This directive defines a ''match template'': given an XPath expression, it replaces any element in the template that matches the expression with its own content.
+
+For example, the match template defined in the following template matches any element with the tag name “greeting”:
+
+{{{
+#!xml
+<div xmlns:py="http://markup.edgewall.org/">
+  <span py:match="greeting">
+    Hello ${select('@name')}
+  </span>
+  <greeting name="Dude" />
+</div>
+}}}
+
+This would result in the following output:
+
+{{{
+#!xml
+<div>
+  <span>
+    Hello Dude
+  </span>
+</div>
+}}}
+
+This directive can also be used as an element:
+
+{{{
+#!xml
+<div xmlns:py="http://markup.edgewall.org/">
+  <py:match path="greeting">
+    <span>Hello ${select('@name')}</span>
+  </py:match>
+  <greeting name="Dude" />
+</div>
+}}}
+
