Predicting the matches
Predict the end score of all the matches in the tournament/competition. You have until 15 minutes before the start of a match to add or change your prediction.
The server time is used. No discussion about that, so be on time if you want to fill in your scores.
As you may have noticed the matches in the next stages are not yet filled at the beginning of the tournament. Once the teams are through to the next round, I will add them. These games can also be changed until 15 minutes before the game starts. Or, if you’re feeling lucky, you can predict them now.
The scoring
In the group stage, the scores at the end of the game are used for the calculation of the scores. For the knockout rounds, the score at the end of the 90 mins is used.
Goals in a penalty shoot-out are NOT taken into consideration.
You get points for predicting the correct winner of the match or predicting a draw. We call this the RESULT score. In case you also predict the exact number of goals scored, you will get extra points. We call this the EXACT score.
If you predict the correct result and get the goal difference you will be 1 bonus point. (e.g. if you predict a match to end 3-1 and it ends 4-2, you will earn 2 points TOTAL for this match – 1 for the correct result and 1 Bonus point for the getting the goal difference)
| Points | |
|---|---|
| EXACT score | 3 |
| RESULT score | 1 |
| Goal Difference BONUS | 1 |
Points will be DOUBLED for the 2nd round, Quarterfinals, Semifinals and 3rd place match.
Points won in the finals will be TRIPLED

Same ranking?
When multiple players have the exact same amount of points, then the following sorting rules are applied to the ranking (the most important one at the top):
- Number of EXACT scores;
- Number of RESULT scores;
