That is a strange rule for me. They are playing playoffs over two legs but if there is no winner then Bari goes up automatically. Extra time and penalties would be expected but it is what it is.

yeah, it is strange, but I can find it to be good, if you had been better throughout season, then you have to have some advantage in play-off as well
since there is no third match on home pitch (as in basketball for example), you got draw as your win, maybe it is fair (although I don't like due to Cagliari being forced to win this duel)
Don't agree with this, if you have play offs then there shouldn't be a big advantage for one team. If you want to value success during season simply don't have play offs and give the spot to Bari automatically.

nevertheless, match ended 1:1, two VAR decided penalties for Bari, second in 90+4 minute, and Bari needs a draw at home to be in Serie A next season
maybe Ranieri can pull some better tactics for re-match, Bari was better in second half and never-mind penalties, deserved to get a draw

play-off for Serie A spot between Cagliari and Bari, and first match half-time, Cagliari is up 1:0
early lead, Bari missed penalty, hopefully Cagliari can take a lead to Bari

if there is similar situation to SF, Cagliari needs to win this duel, since aggregate draw will put Bari as a winner

Serie A has more problems then this so who cares  Grin Thinking about Juve and their penalty points mostly.

The Serie A pool was really my worst performing pool this season. Especially in the first half of the league I couldn't predict Napoli to show this good performance. Congratulations to all prize winners. I hope I can also finish in the prize area next season.
Thank you very much! Payment received!

Once again, congratulations to all the winners and hope to see you all next year!

Just to echo @icopress's statement.

I've received the prize and it's worth the while for me, due to the nature of the competition and Saint-loup dominant personality in almost pools, being able edge him to the first position in the final moment was the highlight for me.


It's as though Saint-loup took the every pool as a fulltime job this season, he took it very personally this season  Cheesy

Yeah, Serie A fires up my ass. The only pool out of 4 in which I participated and did not get into the prizes. And I'm not nervous because of the prizes - I remember very well how in the previous season Serie A also infuriated me with its randomness. Probably the only league where it almost never happens that the leader group wins in sync - there will always be a couple of teams (and sometimes 5-6 lol) that will lose points and ruin your multibet.

Congratulations to everyone who was able to get into the prizes despite the fact that this is a very difficult league to predict! And thanks to all the organizers!  Smiley

@morvillz7z there was about 16.5 mBTC left for you in the end. Hope you don't mind I always select one place for tx fees begging of the season and that is always the one I boost most from initial rewards which are shown in percentages. Seems like most fair solution.

congrats to all winners

last round was what expected it to be, with Milan and Roma both winning their matches, and sent Spezia and Verona to play-off

Cagliari managed to have a goalless draw against Parma, and reached final with Bari, for a spot in Serie A, will be interesting to see who will get on top, and secure that spot
onwards to Cagliari being back in Serie A

Slava Ukraini!


Top 5 as it stands.

Harkorede came back strong in the final round to clinch first place. Congrats on the win! In the three Serie A editions of this pool, we've got three different winners.

It was great fun playing with you all! Many thanks to Trofo for making this pool happen, as well as to our generous sponsor, Sportsbet.io
Congratulations to all winners - well deserved! And thanks Trofo and Sportsbet for another great season. For me personally it wasn't good. IIRC, I was 1st or 2nd before World Cup break, but after it I started to go down constantly. On final round I managed to go up by 2 place to 6th, but I was very far from 5th place.

Spezia and Verona will get their playoff after all, late drama in Rome.

Bologna with that late winner could get to play in Europe next season, that's of course if Fiorentina wins the Confs. League and Juventus gets a one-year ban from UEFA.  Grin

Crazy stuff buddy!

I'm not gonna lie, I didn't expect such a come back, and to be very honest, I had the slightest changes that resulted to me claiming the first position, I changed Napoli to from 3-0, to 2-0 and Roma from 2-0 to 2-1, and that extra 3 points is all that end counted towards my victory, and funny enough I've watched Serie A match the least compared to La Liga and Bundesliga this season.

It's been one hell of a ride with you all genius sport freaks  Wink

^^  Serie A has a new/old rule regarding relegation teams, specifically 17th and 18th. If both Verona and Spezia finish with 31 points (which seems likely), there will be a one-off match played at a neutral location. H2H, score difference does not matter. A playoff to determine who stays up and who gets relegated. I kinda root for that to happen...

I'd also love for that to happen, and I must confess I have never been aware of this up until this post of yours, this a relegation battle I'd fancy over the Bundesliga-esque promoted team vs relegated team offs to see who stays or who get promoted / relegated in the league.



So much for my bets today, I had a parlay on all the matches for this round on Over 2.5 goals, but it's as though they've all decided to go the other way round, and all just want to go for their summer holidays already.

didn't know that, not sure that I prefer it to H2H during the season (they have played two matches during the season, why to have third to decide who is going down), because it is putting team that is in better form at the season end in advantage
although, both teams are now in shit form, Verona was at one point in better form, and reached Spezia, but last few matches both have troubles to get any points, even with teams that do not have much to play for

nevertheless, would like to see Verona staying, more than Spezia

you probably know all rules, but Bari won 1:0 against Sudtirol, and passed through on 1:1 aggregate, probably due to being better in regular season?
Parma and Cagliari are playing tonight

I always seem to forget about this pool, must make more effort to remember it, especially us oldies right Wink

No chance for me for prizes but I started well with Fiorentina, maybe a final yellow cap at least to end my terrible season!

Me too then, the more games the better, obviously, for fans and for us. I think this is the best rule of all, I prefer it to goal difference and H2H nonsense, I know it's one extra game but that should always be how to settle it, at the end of the season would be fine for most schedules anyway.

I don't even know what has to happen in the last round for it to be considered a drama. The fight between Spezia and Verona for the right to stay in Serie A is probably mostly interesting only to their fans. Maybe if Roma lose again and get into the Conference League again? It will certainly be terrible and somewhat dramatic after such an overall good season.

drama in Premier league was also mostly about relegation, or I missed some other drama being stuck to follow Everton all along
Bundesliga is other story and they have put great story for Bavarians and a lot of material for Troll Football twitter account from Dortmund side

so drama between Spezia and Verona can also be respectful, maybe only to their fans, but could bring some following from others as well
if Roma loses last round, they will just add to point deduction to Juventus, and send them to Conference anyway, Calcio business
