A note on points allocations …

To avoid confusion, teams sharing the same award will get the full points award. eg England and Japan both end as top scorers on 16 goals each - both get the full points award.

The champions will get 10 sweepstake points, the runners up 5, the losing finalists 3, not 10 plus 5 plus 3. The same goes for the prediction allocation.

Think that’s it. :elephant:

Kicking and screaming!

:laughing:

I corrrrrrrr wait!

Just to be clear what exactly do you mean by wooden spoon? Last in each of the groups? Last in a group with the lowest points and if level goal difference?

Ah yes, the worst record in the group stage - eg Zero points in Group B with a minus 14 goal difference, for example. The team in Group C with minus 13 goal difference is not the wooden spoon.

As league rules, so calculated on points, goal difference and goals scored.

It’s done!

Just have to post the video.

Update within the hour I expect.
