Congratulations to all the participants!

I'm gad to have made it pass the group stages Cheesy

, but it only gets harder now and the questions this time around are even more tough technical, honestly.

The second question in the form seemed to be slightly wrongly worded (or intertwined between the question and the answer options) and could be misinterpreted, I think I have the correct interpretation from the question itself, but the options in the answers could also all happen except the last one, I think the answers should be stated as the first goal to be conceded rather than if they'll concede within a specific interval or not, as they could concede goals in all the intervals of the first 3 options.

Does anyone knows how and when can we see points and standings for Fifa website competition?
I got my Fifa brackets for Group G, A, B, C 100% correct, but sadly I don't think I did that great for all other groups.
Other things I got correct is Netherlands vs USA, France vs Poland, England vs Senegal, Argentina, France, Spain and Croatia to go Quarter-finals, and maybe few more.

Really hard today, one good team its going home, lets see if Belgium or Croatia, this Belgium doesnt seems in well shape compared with another years, Morocco has the qualy in their hands, and also high chance of be the first of the group.

Before the start of the championship, De Bruyne's words that they are too old and he sees the Belgian national team rather as outsiders were perceived as something strange, but now they look quite adequate. Given the fact that they have grievances against each other and some players do not talk to each other, I don’t know if they will be able to unite and play successfully today. It seems to me that Croatia will not lose at least.

They had already given up before the first game; there was no longer any team spirit because everyone was thinking, oh this guy is old, will he be able to catch a long pass? If you looked closely, you'd notice that KDB was only picking players at close range and was mostly spamming crosses into the box. The team spirit had long since vanished; look for retirement letters in the coming days.

So, a bit of an overview before the last games:

Group C - Woodie and inthelongrun a point ahead of morvillz7z, with different answers remaining so will be interesting to track.

I can't see my name, so I guess it's over after MD2. My selections for MD3 were a complete mess, so I saw this coming. Congratulations to the qualified teams!

When are the round of 16 questions likely to go out...

Fingers crossed, Cody keep me in the competition Tongue

An hour or so after the last game today. We have to wait for all the games to finish, it will be easier in the next knockout rounds because there will be a few days break in between.

For this round you won't have much time to answer so maybe place your reminders a few hours before the first knockout games.

Oh man Uruguay didn't think for a second that they need one more goal for safety and Korea punished them by scoring lately a winning and qualify goal against Portugal , a team who had no desire what so ever to win against South Korea. With this qualification , it's the 3rd time in South Korea history when they qualify for outside of groups stage in World Cup so I'm curious where this run will end as we all know the infamous run of 2002 against Italy and Spain Grin

Just as my favorite team is out of the tournament because Japan won against Spain, same with my fate in this competition is over

. Congratulations to KTCham and Ralle14 for advancing to the next round from group F.
Thank you to the Cro2 team and also Sportsbet as sponsors, happy to be able to take part in this event, hopefully, I can participate in other competitions with all of you guys.

Thank you for your congratulations! Today, half of the participants will win a ticket to the next round, and half will win the nerve savings. We must see the positive everywhere Grin

It's quite interesting that at such a fairly long distance (by the number of points) there are groups where the situation is not clear until the very last outcome and tiebreaks may be needed.

In my group, jayce and I will leave the tournament early. I think we weren't lucky enough. Today we have Brazil's match against Cameroon. Perhaps we will witness many goals during the first half, and I do not know that anyone in the group will achieve the correct time. Let's continue to see.

I guess I need an extra effort to score more points in the fantasy game so I'll pick a perfect deck and maybe we'll have a cake tasting there Grin

Slissy is so great on this world cup. He/she really has outstanding performance in both of this tourney and the Superbru one. Damn this world cup really has so many unpredictable things.

So, a bit of an overview before the last games:

Group A - Harkorede and slaman29 will fight it out for the 1st place but both have qualified
Group B - Slissy won the group with LTU_btc in 2nd
Group C - Woodie and inthelongrun a point ahead of morvillz7z, with different answers remaining so will be interesting to track.
Group D - slackovic and buwaytress to fight it out for 1st spot, big advantage to slackovic. mitchr4 out with 16 points, really unlucky to be placed here
Group E - Renato297 certain to qualify, probably from 1st spot. CLS63 and dittoup probably going to extra time - with dittoup being late for most of the 3rd round. Would be guaranteed 1st place if he remembered to play.
Group F - ralle14 and KTChampions to play for the 1st spot
Group G - Kanapka, casperBGD and icopress all on 14 points, if nobody scores more than 3 goals Kanapka is safe. If someone does, 3 players will wait for the last game, otherwise it is between icopress and casperBGD in the decider
Group H - vd309 and famososMuertos qualify, probably in this order

This was tough to calculate with points still in the game so I apologize if some mistakes were made. Do check it yourselves Grin

looking at group G, we have a decider tonight
I need first goal in Brazil match after 19 minute to proceed to next round, or in case they score earlier, I need them to overcome Germany at 4 goals, or any other team tonight to score five goals (except for Brazil, I do not see any team capable doing that)

it was an interesting competition so far with icopress and Kanapka

Hell, Modric got a 7.08 and De Bruyne a 7.2. Probably fair, however, I would have done the opposite (not only because I chose Modric Grin

) since the Croatian team reached the goal, but the Belgian team did not.

It's safe to say all these stats have some bias to them, how the hell was Modric given the man of the match and not accumulate enough points against KDB who has been telling the world how much old the team has become Roll Eyes

Lower your expectations mate, this world cup has produced several upsets and it wouldn't strike me if Cameroon held Brazil to a stalemate, maybe a win over the south Americans to proceed to the R16.

@slackovic You're safe. I have a feeling we'll end up going for the tiebreaker to see who wins the group but mitch can't make it (phew haha). Too lazy to count Group C but Woodie and morvillz strike me as the ones to progress... Also, never heard of Gvardiol tbh, Fox commentator I was tuning into mistook him for Lovren a couple of times, so even I got confused. Premier League next? And yeah

@cryptofrka Strange indeed to watch KdB and Modric and say how poor they are, it's a compliment to their class that we can't even imagine them playing just above average.

@slaman29 Early congrats, I picked Ferran Torres, thought Spain would have a field day. Very wrong. Richarlison might break everyone's hearts today though for that question Wink

I just checked the points in my group and... Huh... It will be close. I thought that I'm rather safe with 13 points from the first two rounds, but now I see that mitchr4 got 7 points in the third round and he is only one point behind me. Buwaytress already passed me and he is sitting in the first place for now. Here is the current score for the group D:

Quote

buwaytress 19
slackovic 17
mitchr4 16
renampun 10

It will be tough...

EDIT: Actually no. If I calculated correctly, I should be safe. mitchr4 can't win any more points except for the tie-breaker question and I can still win two more points for top goal-scorer (if Valencia stays the top goalscorer) and for the team with the most goals in the third round (I don't know where to see how Germany is holding up).

In my group I think Harkorede will win as he has 1 point more than me think my position looks safe in Round 3 as Germany scored 4 so Brazil has to score 5 for that to lose, doing better than I thought honestly and still Valencia has a chance for a correct point which Harkorede also has, so I'm happy we might enter tiebreaker

Hakan is out as also has Valencia, phew!

Modrić is playing an ok tournament but it looks bad by his own high standards.

Ok, I agree with this, bad tournament is a bit of an overstatement.
What I meant by it is that I think that both Kovačić and Brozović have performed better so far and that Modrić has been our weakest starting midfielder.

That said - he's a fantastic player and his weak performances are still above average.

This round 3 I thought I would compete for second place with CLS63 since the first place Dittoup with 13 points and I don't know what happened from the 4th opponent, he did not participate since the 2nd round. And in that last round I don't know what happened to Dittoup who entered very late and I see that he has added 14 and it depends on Brazil not scoring 4 goals because he would already be eliminated (CLS63 has 14 and would add 15) and if there are still ties it depends on the question of tie-breaker.
Fortunately, I have added 15 points.
