    With you telling me that yourself and Ristac have gone for Argentina to win, then that's my straw clutching chance gone :)

    I don’t want to sound like sour grapes <cheers>
    But how did Ell get one point for that game for his 0-0 and I also only got the one point even though Argentina won? Don’t deduct me for questioning <laugh>

    You got one point for the correct team winning

    Ell got one point for getting the Croatia score correct.

    I got 2 points for correct team winning and correct Croatia score

    Its the main flaw of the scoring system, hence why I didnt bother changing from my 1-0 prediction method

    It’s great getting to the last two games without knowing the rules <laugh>
    I always assumed you got more points for predicting the winning team :emoticon-0114-dull:

    Mathematically maybe not, but realistically it is. Making up 7 points from 2 games with a 1-0 prediction method is not an easy achievement, especially as Ristac has gone for France to beat Morocco 3-0, so even if I get full score for a 1-0 victory, Ristac will pick up at 2 points, and that's not counting everyone else who is ahead of the 3 of us ;)

    And NO I am not about to cast aside the prediction method I've used for the last 10 years of doing these types of competition :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    It IS mathematically impossible for you to win if you don't cast aside your prediction method.

    2 x correct 1-0 scorelines + 12 points if the Argies win is only 20 points. You're 21 behind the leader.

    If you don't change you're playing to lose:D

    France v Morocco 2-0

    upload_2022-12-14_21-51-37.png

    With just the final to go, elland is 6 points clear. Can anybody snatch it at the death. Aski could if it's a 10-goal final, Argentina win and he predicts the score correctly:D

    Get your predictions in for the final between a team that lost to Saudi Arabia and another that lost to Tunisia and has only just managed to keep a clean-sheet...

    Argentina v France

    I thought you might have gone for 6-5, it's got the same GD as 1-0 and it covers elland getting a point:D
