Well, well well. What an interesting finish we have, Great final prediction from @The Changing Man and @littleDinosaurLuke leaves us with this unprecedented finish (aka the nightmare scenario) So at the end of normal time, we have a tie between @littleDinosaurLuke and @Dier Hard. The object of this game is to predict the right score, so the tie breaker is how many exact predictions were made. As I type this, I don't know which poster this will favour. If they are the same then we have joint winners. So............. Round 1 Luke 2 DH 2 Round 2 Luke 2 DH 3 Round 3 Luke 1 DH 2 Last16 Luke 2 DH 0 Qtrs Luke 1 DH 3 Semi Luke 2 DH 1 Final Luke 1 DH 0 And the final result is Luke 11 DH 11 Therefore we have a tie, I know of no other way to separate you Congratulations @Dier Hard & @littleDinosaurLuke joint winners of this competition Thanks to them and to everyone else that took part. If wanted, a new Premier League competition will start on 16th August. Hope to see you all then.
Congrats to my fellow victor, Luke, whilst this one may have an asterisk now due to an unprecedented tie for the trophy, I think I’ve just done a “Spain” as I’m pretty sure I won Euro 2020, World Cup 2022 and now (jointly) Euro 2024! If only I could bring my international pedigree to club form though as I still chase that elusive club trophy! As usual many thanks to SD, these are always very enjoyable
The obvious tie-breaker is a round of predictions for the Champions League. It's the 1st qualifying round on Tuesday and Wednesday, so get brushing up you two. Ballkani vs UE Santa Coloma is the early game, so don't miss out!
Congrats to @Dier Hard Glad to have lost my choker tag (for now). It took perfect predictions in the last three games to match DH; I'm glad I stuck with my instincts in predicting 2-1 Spain even though it meant I couldn't win outright. Thanks for doing this @SpursDisciple So I have 1,4=,1= finishes at the three Euro Prediction Leagues you've done (God knows how) - roll on the next one!
Ballkani had a man sent off after 37 minutes and conceded in the 92nd to lose on the day and go into extra-time. Went 3-2 down on aggregate, then equalised with a minute left to go to penalties. Lost 6-5. UE Santa Coloma will now face Midtjylland in the 2nd qualifying round. Probably won't go well for them.
I'm a spent force now. Tomorrow is the start of the Open, the 2nd Test v Windies and the Tour de France and World Matchplay (darts) are at an interesting stage. Who needs football?
